Pre-heat oven to 350F (180C ). Grease and flour a 9 inch (24 cm) loaf pan.
In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt.
In a large bowl cream the butter and sugar, approximately 3-4 minutes, add the egg and beat to combine.
With a wooden spoon add flour mixture alternately with the milk to the creamed mixture in three parts, then add vanilla, mix just until combined, 15-16 stirs, no more. The mixture will be thick and lumpy. Gently fold in the strawberries.
Spoon batter into the prepared loaf pan, if desired sprinkle with the topping. Bake for approximately 45 - 50 minutes. Let cool completely before drizzling with a simple glaze.
FOR THE TOPPING
In a small bowl combine the brown sugar and cinnamon.
SIMPLE GLAZE
In a small bowl mix together until smooth, icing sugar, vanilla, cream and milk should be quite thick. If you want it thicker, add more powdered sugar.
