Though strawberries were seen from December, I was not in a mood to buy and make as I hardly blogged in that month.Since I felt guilty bought a box keeping in mind this loaf cake. My house felt heavenly when this was in the oven and I was so excited didn't wait for it to cool completely so my pieces were not perfect. I request you to be patient before you slice them.
I adapted this recipe fromhere and converted it to eggless by replacing eggs with yogurt.Go ahead and try any version egg or eggless and relish with your family.
