Soft Cherry Bread with Cherry-Almond Glaze — An EASY quick bread recipe that’s perfect for Valentine’s Day, Easter, or Mother’s Day! Because you can never have too much pink!
My grandma used to make the best cherry bread. I’d give anything to watch her make it again and write down what she did. But since that will never happen, I had about 17 emails up and back dialoguing with my mom about how she thought Grandma made it.

My mom pieced together some of her own notes and a recipe from a 1948 cookbook that she thinks is what my grandma used.
Sweet Soft Cherry Bread With Cherry Almond Glaze
After reading it all over and brainstorming about this bread on multiple 8-mile runs, I made a few tweaks and finally made it.
This cherry almond bread is a soft, sweet, and an easy quick bread recipe to make. It’s perfect for Valentine’s Day, Easter, Mother’s Day, baby or bridal showers, and would be so pretty for a brunch.
My daughter inhaled this sweet, soft cherry bread and her slices were flooded with glaze. You can never have too much pink. Or glaze.

My grandma loved pink and it was her favorite color. I have a feeling she would have been thrilled seeing all this pink.
This is a re-post from when I originally posted this recipe in 2014 and since that time it has been imitated and copied, the photos have been stolen on the internet, but that’s just a testament to how good it is and my readers who’ve made it know that!
I have a feeling she used shortening, but I know the word shortening causes immediate clicking off the page by most modern bakers, so I went with a little canola oil instead.

I was tempted to add buttermilk or Greek yogurt to the batter because I do swear by them for keeping things lighter, softer, and moister, but I know my grandma wouldn’t have used them, so they were out.
My grandma didn’t glaze her bread, and it didn’t need it. But I couldn’t resist reserving a bit of the cherry juice and making a cherry-almond glaze.
Here’s what you’ll need to make this cherry dessert recipe (I know it’s a quick bread, but trust me when I say this is a dessert!):
Homemade Cherry Bread Recipe
There’s almond extract in the bread and also more in the glaze. It wonderfully complements the cherries and shouldn’t be missed. Look for it next to vanilla extract in the baking aisle.
If you love almond extract or are wondering what to do with the rest of the vial, makethis cake. It’s unique and a keeper.
Of course, if you have an almond allergy in your family, you’re welcome to omit the almond extract altogether. Just note that your bread won’t taste the same as mine.

I baked the bread in two 8×4-inch loaf pans. You could probably get away with one 9×5-inch pan but I find things get a little too browned around the edges before the center fully cooks through in large loaf pans.
My mom made the recipe as 4 mini loaves with good luck, and I’m sure muffins would work. Just note that if you start tinkering with the pan sizes, you’ll have to start tinkering with the baking times.
Yes, this maraschino cherry bread will keep up to 6 months in the freeze.Do not glaze bread until ready to serve if you plan on storing long-term.

I’m about halfway done and I’m thinking about buying gift cards for everyone else. Do you like to get gift cards or would you rather have an actual gift? When did kid’s toys get so expensive? Something you would think should be under $20 is more like $50. It’s crazy.
