Strawberry Cream Cheese Bread ~I saw this recipe for Strawberry Cream Cheese Bread and I immediately knew I would be making it. The strawberries in the garden are just starting to get ripe and sweet and I have some cream cheese in the refrigerator that needs to be used up. I am seeing my sister this weekend and I am going to take her a nice warm loaf. Don’t you just love when someone stops by with a great homemade item still warm from the oven?

It would be perfect. Out on the deck, under the umbrella with a nice breeze and a pitcher of suntea. I know what I am doing this afternoon! Have a great week!
Thanks for sharing your recipe at Sew It Cook It Craft It. It sounds delicious! 🙂 Too bad that I can’t eat dairy. Maybe I’ll try to replace the cream cheese and buttermilk with soy yogurt and oil.
Ooh. Let me know how that workos out! A dairy free option would be great.
This sounds wonderful! Thank you for sharing at Ravenwould.

Good morning Marilyn, Do you know I don’t think I have ever baked a cake with fresh strawberries actually in the cake, so I am really excited to try your recipe. As I live in England I will have to wait a couple of months before strawberries are in season, but it is so worth the wait to make your cake. I am really looking forward to baking it.
With warmest wishes
Daphne
When you finally get the chance Daphne please come back and let me know how it turned out! Have a lovely week.
That sounds so delicious Marilyn. The buttermilk must make it so rich and filling too. I’m pinning so my lovely daughter can make us some next weekend.
Oh, you will love it Michelle! Have a lovely week.
This sounds so good, two of my favorite flavors!
Thank you Lori! I am glad it inspired you. Have a lovely week!

You got it Kathleen! Just hollar and I will bring the butter too! Have a lovely week!
Hi Marilyn, I’m really glad I found you on Bloggers Pit-Stop.
I’m always looking for new recipes. Strawberries and Cream Cheese Bread is really mouth watering. I will be buying Strawberries real soon, I always have Cream Cheese on hand. I eat a lot of it, can’t you tell.
As soon as I can find my Mom’s recipe for Melt In Your Mouth Orange Drop Cookies I’ll share it with everyone.
I have to check out your recipe for Pork Chops, My Husband thinks the’re Manna from Heaven, so I need a new way to prepare my Manna! Thanks for Sharing, Donna (I’ll be sharing these goodies with others)
Welcome to my kitchen Donna! Glad you found me and like the bread. The pork chops are too die for! Just make sure they are center cut and they will cook through and stay moist and soft. You may want to season them to suit you. I didn’t put that in the directions as I get enough salt from the crackers. Your Orange Drop Cookies sound so good. I hope you find that recipe soon! Have a great day!
Marilyn, let’s try this again. Your strawberry cream cheese bread looks and sounds fantastic. The ingredients in this bread sound like they would come together so nicely. I can’t wait to try it. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you so much Amy. I am glad you like it! Have a great day!
Your Strawberry Cream Cheese bread looks wonderful. Strawberries are a favorite of mine. Thank you for sharing your recipe at the Snickerdoodle Create~Bake~Make link party!
Great to see you Sharon. Thanks for the kind words. Have a great day!
Perfect for the strawberry season! Thanks for sharing at the What’s for Dinner link up!
You are welcome Helen. Have a great day!
Yum! I have tried to grow strawberries, but it is just so hot here it doesn’t work. I do always have strawberries freeze dried and ready to go, so I’m going to try this! #happynowlinkup
Here in Michigan strawberries do quite well. For a lot of other fruits and veggies our growing season is too short. The freeze dried will work too! Have a great day!
This looks yummy!! Might have to try it.. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Vicki. I hope you do give it a try. Have a great day!
Thank you for attending the #WednesdayAIMLinkParty. I shared your post on Facebook, Google+, Pinterest, and Twitter.
You are welcome! I attended the G+ today and added it to my directory and Pinterest board too! Have a great day!
That sounds like a wonderful combination! We have a fresh strawberry farm right down the road from us, I think I might need to make a run there soon to try this lol. Great recipe!
We have an orchard and farm too. Don’t you love it? Have a great week.
I just got a case of fresh strawberries from Sicily! Will definitely be making this for the weekend! #norulesweekendlinky
Let me know how you like it!! Have a great week.
When I saw buttermilk as the first ingredient I knew I had to make this! I love buttermilk in baked goods. No fresh local strawberries till June here…..not sure I can hold out that long. I will have to buy from the grocery store! Thanks for the recipe!
Thanks AnnMarie. I just loved this recipe. Have a great day!

Thank you Monika. I am glad it appeals to you. Have a lovely day!
This sounds like a nice treat to have stashed in the freezer for a rainy day, which we’re having lots of. Hopefully, we’ll get some plump sweet strawberries in our stores soon.
I am looking forward to the fruit and veggie season too. Have a great week.
Well, that just looks amazing!!!

Thank you Roseann. I appreciate the pin. Have a lovely week.
Pinning! We should have strawberries in about 3 weeks. I love how the Farmers Market smells when they are out!
Lisa, this is one of my favorite “foodie” seasons. All the frsh fruits and veggies make up for my bad foods in the colder months! Have a lovely week.
We love to have sweet breads(banana, etc) with cream cheese spread on it…. but I have never heard of the cream cheese IN it. Sounds wonderful…. especially with strawberries. Yummm. 🙂
I have a few sweet breads in my recipe box. This one though was so good as well as being a bit unique. Have a lovely holiday!
Oooh! Pinned and can’t wait to try it. We’ll get fresh strawberries here around July.
This recipe really surprised me with the ease. It was moist and tasty without being overpowering. Have a lovely holiday!
Pinned! Thanks for sharing on Wake Up Wednesday!
Thank you Mary, really glad to see you.
