This bread was good, but it wasn't all that flavorful. I did put one loaf in the freezer and seems to hold up well.

Followed your recipe right on down, but used unsweetened frozen strawberries that I thawed & then patted dry with a paper towel. The bread turned out great, & we enjoyed it (as did my son & DIL), but I definitely look forward to making this again when local strawberries are in season! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
