Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.75 cup granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup almonds, chopped
• 1.5 cups fresh strawberries, diced
• 2 large eggs
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
• 1.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 0.75 cup plain Greek yogurt
• 0.5 teaspoon almond extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, combine granulated sugar, eggs, melted butter, vanilla extract, almond extract, and Greek yogurt. Mix until smooth and well combined.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.

Step 5

Fold in the chopped almonds and diced strawberries until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack and let it cool completely before slicing.

Step 9

Slice and serve! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
