Slather this gluten-free Strawberry Bread with your favorite jam or buttery ghee for breakfast!
There’s nothing like the smell of fresh strawberry bread baking in the oven. Unlike traditional recipes, this Paleo bread swaps out refined sugars for juicy strawberries and raw honey. Pair it with your favorite coffee or tea for a yummy breakfast, without the guilt!
Fresh strawberries are added to a batter that’s equally sweet and satisfying. The base is made from a blend of gluten-free flours and lightly moistened with eggs, melted coconut oil, and coconut yogurt. Added honey offers a subtle touch of sweetness while fresh strawberries pack in extra vitamins and antioxidants!

To get started, combine the wet ingredients (minus the coconut oil) into the bowl of a standing mixer. Prior to blending, it’s important to let the wet ingredients rest at room temperature for at least 20 minutes to avoid clumping. Blend the ingredients together for three minutes, or until frothy. In the meantime, whisk the dry ingredients together in a separate bowl.
With the mixer still on, slowly spoon the dry ingredients into the wet. Add the melted coconut oil in last and blend until fully incorporated. Note: Adding coconut oil too soon will cause it to harden when mixed with slightly cooler ingredients.
Then, remove the bowl from the mixer and fold the sliced strawberries into the batter. Pour the mixture into a loaf pan and bake for 35 minutes. Next, tent the pan with foil to prevent the top from burning, and continue cooking for another 10-15 minutes.
When finished, let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before serving. Slice and serve with fresh strawberry jam, chocolate hazelnut spread, or buttery homemade ghee! Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to one week or store in the freezer for up to 30 days.
Tip: This recipe uses a standing mixer, but any electric mixer works just as well.
