Ingredients • 1 cup / 250 ml flour • 1/2 cup / 125 ml whole wheat flour • 1 1/4 cups / 300 ml strawberries (mashed) • 3/4 cup / 175 ml sugar • 2/3 cup / 150 ml oil • 2 eggs • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon • 1/2 teaspoon salt • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Directions Mix together in a large bowl, stirring until just combined. Pour into greased 8-inch / 1.5-L loaf pan and bake in preheated oven at 350F / 180C until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 1 hour.
