Simple Cherry Bread

A basic fast bread with maraschino cherries in each chomp. Remember the almond cherry coating on top this basic cherry bread!

 

This fast bread is your conventional speedy bread formula. Sugar, milk, oil, egg, flour, salt and preparing powder. I needed there to be bunches of cherries in each nibble, so I utilized two containers of maraschino cherries. Channel the juice, yet save around 1/3 cup of the juice for the coating. Hack the cherries either in a little food processor or with a blade.

 

The coating on top of the bread is a blend of powdered sugar, dissolved spread, the cherry juice you saved from the maraschino cherries and some almond remove. The bread is acceptable without the coating, however the almond cherry coating makes it over-the-top astonishing!

 

 

 

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup milk
• 1/2 cup oil
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 large egg
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 2 jars maraschino cherries* (10 ounces each)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (or almond extract)
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

Glaze:

• 1/3 cup maraschino cherry juice
• 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons melted butter

 

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. In a medium bowl, stir together the sugar, milk, oil, egg and vanilla. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined.
3. Drain the maraschino cherries, reserving the juice for the glaze. Coarsely chop the cherries in a food processor or with a knife. Gently fold the cherries into the batter.
4. Pour the bread batter into a greased 9"x5" bread pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 50-55 minutes. A toothpick inserted in the center of the bread should come out clean. Allow the bread to cool for 10 minutes, then remove the bread to a wire rack to cool completely.
5. To make the glaze, combine the powdered sugar, melted butter, cherry juice and almond extract in a small bowl. Mix until it is smooth.
6. Once the bread is cool, spread the glaze on top of the bread. Slice and serve. Freezes well!
