Description

This sweet bread recipe featuring strawberry jam is a wonderful breakfast option you can make ahead and freeze.

Ingredients

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup strawberry jam
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 1/2 cups white sugar
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon lemon juice
4 eggs
1 cup chopped walnuts

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 9x5-inch loaf pans.
2 Combine flour, salt, cream of tartar, and baking soda in a bowl; set aside.
3 Stir strawberry jam and buttermilk together; set aside.
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.
5 Divide batter evenly between the prepared pans.
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.
