Equipment

  • Measuring cups
  • Measuring spoons
  • Stand Mixer
  • Loaf pan
  • Cooling Rack

Ingredients
  

  • ¼ cup butter melted
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • ½ cup milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest from one lemon
  • 2¼ cups flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 ½ cups raspberries

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • Combine melted butter with sugar.
  • Add eggs, milk, lemon juice and lemon zest. Mix until combined. The mixture will look slightly curdled. This is fine.
  • Mix in flour, baking powder and salt. Stir just until combined.
  • Gently fold in raspberries. The berries may fall apart during this stage. Just give it 3-4 folds so the berries are distributed.
  • Place batter in a greased bread pan (8 ½ x 4 ½).
  • Bake in preheated 350°F oven for 60-65 minutes until baked through.
  • Allow bread to cool in pan for at least 10 minutes.
  • Remove from pan and continue cooling before slicing.

To Make Mini Loaves

  • Follow instructions above for making bread batter.
  • Place batter in two greased mini loaf pans.
  • Bake for 45-50 minutes in a preheated 350 degree oven.

Notes

I use salted butter. Be careful when measuring your flour so the flour doesn't become compacted. Once you add flour, don't overmix dough. The raspberries are fragile and will fall apart as you mix them into the dough. Allow bread to cool before slicing and eating. Store bread in an airtight container at room temperature for 2-3 days. If using frozen raspberries, do not thaw first. Add frozen and increase baking time by 10 minutes. Test bread by using a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf. If just a few moist crumbs, the bread is cooked through.
