What do you do with left over fruit pulp from your juicer? Save it and make delicious breads, muffins and other baked goods! Today, I'm going to share how to make strawberry fruit pulp bread and it will be one of your new favorite recipes!
Last week, I shared a recipe for a Strawberry Basil Spritzer that is pretty awesome. When making this, I was left with about a cup of strawberry pulp after straining. I had no idea what I was going to do with it, but knew I would incorporate it somehow into a recipe or two.
Juicing is becoming more and more popular and folks are getting pretty creative with flavor combinations. We have a Breville juicer
and it's super easy to use and clean up. Breville makes a lot of different models, but we opted to get the compact machine due to lack of space in our kitchen. This is strictly a shout out to our favorite juicer and is not sponsored in any way- we just love it, and I wanted to share which one we have.
What to do with all that juicer pulp?
What do you do with all that leftover pulp after putting through your fruit and veggies? First off, don't hate on the leftover pulp, save it! Depending on what your juicing, will determine which recipe will be the lucky recipient. If you are making veggie juice, save your pulp for soups, stews or sauces. Add it to pasta or in some cases, use it to bake! Same goes for your fruit pulp- use in baked goods, frostings, glazes or toppings.
I had strawberry pulp, so I decided to make a few things. First up was our try at strawberry fruit pulp quick bread. We love quick breads and pound cakes in our house, like our delicious clementine pound cake recipe, so this was a no-brainer test recipe. One thing I would like to mention when it comes to using juice pulp; a little goes a long way. Here I am stirring only 1/4 cup of pulp into my batter.
This baked beautifully and was so full of flavor. That little bit of strawberry fruit pulp went a long way! But then I decided to kick it up a notch and I added a tablespoon of the pulp to a glaze to pour over the top! WOW! This was light, delicious, just the right amount of sweet, and gone in one day.
With my leftover strawberry fruit pulp, I made quick bread, a glaze to go on top and one more recipe that turned out great in the test kitchen. That wonderful recipe will be coming to the blog soon, so stay tuned!
