Lemon-Black Raspberry Bread

My nieces often describe this as having a tall, cool glass of raspberry lemonade in a bread form! The sweet and tart fresh lemon flavor combines well with the natural sweetness of the black raspberries! This has become a family favorite during berry-picking season! Store any leftovers in the refrigerator.

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• ½ cup white sugar
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 cup milk
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 2 large eggs

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour.

Step 2

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.

Step 3

Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Stir in black raspberries and lemon zest.

Step 4

Beat eggs in a separate bowl using a fork or whisk. Pour in milk, oil, and lemon juice; mix well. Stir in flour mixture until just moistened. Pour into the prepared loaf pan.

Step 5

While bread is baking, combine sugar and lemon juice in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in a microwave oven at 20-second intervals until sugar is dissolved and glaze is smooth.

Step 6

Remove bread from the oven. Brush glaze over warm bread while still in the pan and let cool 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
