Description

This recipe guides you through making delicious maraschino cherry bread, a sweet and moist loaf cake perfect for any occasion. Enjoy the vibrant color and sweet flavor of maraschino cherries in this easy-to-make quick bread.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 cup maraschino cherries, drained and halved
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the drained maraschino cherries and chopped nuts (if using) to create your maraschino cherry bread.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  8. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center of the maraschino cherry loaf cake comes out clean.
  9. Let the maraschino cherry bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For a moister maraschino cherry bread, you can add an extra tablespoon of buttermilk.
  • Ensure your maraschino cherries are well-drained to prevent the bread from becoming too wet.
  • This maraschino cherry quick bread can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days.
