Strawberry Oatmeal Bread Recipe

This strawberry oatmeal bread recipe boasts a deliciously sweet flavor that pairs perfectly with the heartiness of the oatmeal. Prepare with freshly picked, vine ripened strawberries or frozen strawberries in this strawberry oatmeal bread recipe that works great for gift giving! Spring in the South is one of my favorite times of the year because it is the time of year to pick fresh fruit! Especially strawberries! You go to the patch, pick buckets worth and eat as many as you can while you’re out in the fields. You come back with red hands, mouths and clothes! It’s wonderful!

We used to live in Lexington, SC – right outside of the state capital, Columbia. Although we lived in city limits the county is known for its agriculture. We used to love to go strawberry picking and blueberry picking. Since it’s Spring Break here in NC, the kids and I headed back down to SC to go to Riverbanks Zoo and strawberry picking at our favorite place, The Patch.
