While everyone is busy making perfecting sourdough bread, I’m just here making this decadent strawberry yogurt bread. I tried making sourdough, but I think something is wrong with my starter. Oh well, I’m content with this strawberry bread and a glass of milk!
This recipe uses Greek yogurt, which gives this bread such a moist and tender texture. It’s so delicious, you might eat all of it in one sitting. If you happen to have any leftovers, just store in a freezer safe bag and chuck it in the freezer. The shelf life of this bread is about 3-4 days at room temp, but 2-3 months in the freezer.
