Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 0.75 cups Whole milk
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Fresh raspberries
• 1 teaspoons Lemon zest
• 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a larger mixing bowl, combine the sugar, melted butter, milk, egg, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and well incorporated.

Step 4

Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring just until a thick batter forms. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Gently fold in the fresh raspberries and lemon zest, ensuring the raspberries are evenly distributed but not crushed.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

If desired, dust the top with powdered sugar before serving. Slice and enjoy!
