I also did not have strawberry extract and instead subbed a tiny bit of vanilla. This recipe turned out good, but I gave it three stars simply because I was hoping for a purer strawberry flavor and less "spice cake" flavor. This is probably because I skipped the extract, so I will attempt it again with strawberry and maybe less cinnamon.

This bread is unbelievably moist and tastes WONDERFUL. I will definitely be making this again and sharing it with my whole family. Thank you so much!

Right out of the oven, this was way too sweet. I love sweet foods, and this was just too much. I was about to toss the bread the next day, but instead tried more of it. It was much better on day two and three. We didn't have any left on day three. I agree that the bread needs to be cooked a bit longer. I also used sugar instead of flour to prepare the pans. It makes the crust a bit crispy.

Didn't have strawberry flavoring on hand so used almond. Was very dissapointed, it didn't turn out well at all. Perhaps I'll try agian with strawberry flavoring next time!

This was good but we didn't find it great, like the other reviewers. I did not use the glaze per everyone's suggestion, and did find the strawberry extract. We started out baking 4 loaves and had a real problem. We took them out of the oven after 45 minutes, and the toothpick came out clean. However, within 5 minutes all 4 loaves had fallen. They weren't done. The toothpick came out clean because there was a space under the crust. I talked with my father-in-law who was a baker for 60 years and he told me to bake it for 55 minutes at 375 degrees. We made two more loaves and this was much closer to the cook time. He said it was because the strawberries while thawed were still cold and made the batter cold, increasing the bake time. After all the work the bread was good but just 3 stars in our book.

I made mini loaves for Christmas and they turned out wonderful. My family and friends loved it.

This is the best strawberry bread I have ever made and I've tried a lot of recipes. This bread is really moist and the flavor is excellent.

I've made this bread the past 2 Christmases for my gift baskets and always get rave reviews. It's so moist and I love the cinnamon flavor - it tastes so good with the strawberries. I'll be making this again this Christmas and for more Christmases to come.

This is one of my favorite bread recipes! My sis made it first, and sent it too me all the way from ND! And stayed moist! When I made it, I didn't have strawberry extract so I used a mix of almond, vanilla and a minimal amount of lemon extracts! It was wonderful! I also added a struesel toping from the banana crumb muffin recipe from this site, for some added sweetness. I followed other reviews and opted not to use the strawberry topping. Thanks!

oh YUM! ok so i didnt have any strawberry extract, and i needed to use up the strawberries in the fridge.. so although i only made 1 loaf (half recipe) i used the full 2 tbsp of strawberry jam instead of extract to make up for sweetness (that sweetened frozen strawberries have vs fresh ones). This is the most fab, gorgeous, pinkest bread - ever!

I looked in two grocery stores (Kroger and Super Target) and could not find strawberry extract, so I used vanilla extract based on another review. I thought this was a very tasty bread, but thought the cinnamon was a little overpowering (although this may have been because I didn't use the strawberry extract). I will make this again.

This was a great recipe! I did not make the sauce and found that the bread is sweet enough. I followed the rest of the recipe exactly. Thanks for the great recipe!

This bread had a wonderful flavor. I have never had strawberry bread before, but it was much more than I expected! I would suggest if you don't intend to eat it up fast that you don't put the glaze on it after it bakes. Make the glaze and reserve it to place on slices. I found that it made the bread have a clammy texture because we didn't eat the two loaves right away.

This bread is definitely more like a dessert bread, but very good. However, its a little sweet for my liking, so I'll use less sugar next time.

This bread is very moist and delicious. Instead of buying strawberry extract, I used 1 tsp. vanilla in the bread batter, and in the glaze I used about 1/2 tsp. vanilla plus a few drops of orange extract. I also use granulated sugar instead of flour whenever greasing the pans for quick breads. It makes a sweet little crust on the underside that is much more appealing than flour residue. Loved the recipe - will definitely make it again.

This is wonderful cake/bread. Will be a favorite with us. I however found the added sweetness of the sauce was unnessasery,so will leave the sauce off in the future.

This turned out really good followed it exactly.
