Instructions

1
|
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2
|
Spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
3
|
In large mixing bowl, use a mixer to cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract on medium-high speed until smooth and combined, 1-2 minutes. Add the eggs and sour cream and continue to beat, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed, until the mixture is pale and fluffy.
4
|
Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to the bowl. Beat the mixture on medium-low speed, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula, until just combined. Do not over-mix. Fold in the strawberries.
5
|
Place the cream cheese, sour cream, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract in a medium bowl. Beat with a mixer on medium speed until the mixture is completely smooth without lumps, 2-3 minutes.
6
|
Spoon half of the strawberry batter into the loaf pan. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly on top, leaving a half-inch border around the edges. Spoon the remaining strawberry batter over the cream cheese layer.
7
|
Bake the bread on middle rack of oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 55-65 minutes.
8
|
Check to see that bread is done. Remove from oven or add time as needed.
9
|
Allow the bread to rest in the pan for 10 minutes, then release the bread from the pan onto a cooling rack. Allow to cool for at least 1 hour before slicing and serving. Leftover bread may be stored in a large zip-top bag in the refrigerator for 4 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Strawberry Distribution Magic 🍓
    Toss fresh strawberries in a light coating of flour before folding into the batter to prevent them from sinking and ensure even distribution throughout the bread.
  • Cream Cheese Swirl Technique 🧀
    For a perfect cheesecake swirl, slightly warm the cream cheese and use a knife to create gentle, marbled patterns throughout the batter before baking.
  • Moisture Preservation Hack 💧
    Add an extra tablespoon of sour cream to the recipe to guarantee a ultra-moist, tender crumb that stays fresh for days.
  • Prevent Strawberry Bleeding 🚫
    Pat fresh strawberries completely dry with paper towels before adding to the batter to minimize color bleeding and maintain bread's beautiful texture.
  • Perfect Baking Doneness Test 🥄
    Use the clean toothpick method, but also look for a golden-brown top and slightly pulling away edges as additional signs of perfect baking.
