This moist and tender raspberry bread is packed with juicy raspberries and a hint of vanilla, making it the perfect treat for breakfast, brunch, or dessert. Each bite delivers sweet-tart flavor and a soft crumb that melts in your mouth.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour

  • 2 tsp baking powder

  • ½ tsp baking soda

  • ¼ tsp salt

  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened

  • ¾ cup granulated sugar

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • ½ cup sour cream or plain Greek yogurt

  • 1 ¼ cups fresh or frozen raspberries (do not thaw if frozen)

  • Optional: coarse sugar for topping


Instructions

  • Preheat Oven:
    Preheat to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan and line with parchment paper.

  • Mix Dry Ingredients:
    In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

  • Cream Butter & Sugar:
    In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then add vanilla.

  • Combine Wet & Dry:
    Mix in the sour cream, then gradually add the dry ingredients until just combined.

  • Fold in Raspberries:
    Gently fold raspberries into the batter. Don’t overmix.

  • Bake:
    Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle with coarse sugar if desired.
    Bake for 50–60 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

  • Cool & Serve:
    Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

  • For added flavor, try adding 1 tsp lemon zest to the batter.

  • Store leftovers tightly wrapped at room temperature for 2 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days.

  • This bread also freezes well—wrap tightly and store for up to 2 months.
