Strawberry Jam Bread

This is a delicious sweet bread recipe that I received from a friend years ago. It’s a wonderful breakfast option or you can make little loaves to give as gifts. This bread can also be frozen easily and saved for a later date.

Step: 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 9x5-inch loaf pans.

Step: 2

Combine flour, salt, cream of tartar, and baking soda in a bowl; set aside.

Step: 3

Stir strawberry jam and buttermilk together; set aside.

Step: 4

Combine sugar, butter, vanilla extract, and lemon juice in a large mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add dry ingredients alternately with strawberry jam mixture, mixing just until blended. Fold in walnuts.

Step: 5

Divide batter evenly between the prepared pans.

Step: 6

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 55 minutes. Cool for 15 minutes. Remove from pans onto cooling racks.

The best flavour of the flour can make a real deal to your bread. Different makers do vary. Great taste or Canadian flours, which are bet higher in gluten, may give you a better rise than standard dough flours – especially if you’re making wholemeal bread , which doesn’t always getting bigger as well as clear bread.

To made this in a dough , add all the ingredients to your breadmaker and follow the makers instructions.

A bread first rising can be done in the fridge 24 hours . This slows down the time it takes to rise to double its size, giving it a deeper flavour. It’s also a great timesaver , as you can start it night before , then clear it off the next day.
