Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan and, if desired, line with parchment paper along the bottom and up the two longest sides.
- To make the peanut streusel, mix the brown sugar, flour and crushed peanuts in a small bowl. Add the melted butter and mix until combined and crumbly. Place in the fridge while you prepare the bread.
Making the bread
- In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, milk, eggs and peanut butter until combined.
- Add the flour, baking soda and salt. Mix together until just combined, then mix in the chopped strawberries.
- Dollop strawberry jam over the batter in the bowl. Fold the jam into the batter a few times using a rubber spatula, just enough to create swirls.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread into an even layer. Optionally, add extra chopped strawberries on top.
- Remove the streusel from the fridge, break it up, and sprinkle over the top of the batter.
Baking
- Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean or with just a few moist crumbs.
- Loosely cover the bread with parchment paper or aluminum foil halfway through to prevent heavy browning on top.
- When finished baking, remove from the oven and set on a wire rack to cool for 1 hour in the pan.
- For best results, let the bread finish cooling directly on the wire rack before slicing.
Notes
Enjoy the bread plain or with butter, peanut butter, and/or jelly. To store, wrap tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and keep at room temperature for 3-4 days, or in the fridge for up to a week. Reheat slices in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds.
