Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter, room temperature
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 tbsp grated lemon zest
  • 3 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 cup frozen raspberries

For the glaze

  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup frozen raspberries, thawed
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a bread pan.
  • In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar.
  • Add the eggs and mix well.
  • Add the sour cream, lemon zest, and lemon juice until well combined.
  • Mix in the flour, baking powder, and baking soda until fully incorporated.
  • Gently fold in the raspberries into the batter. Do not overmix!
  • Pour the batter into your prepared bread pan. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Let it cool completely before drizzling the glaze overtop of it.

To make the glaze:

  • Strain the seeds from the thawed raspberries either using cheese cloth or a mesh sieve. Make sure to squeeze out all the juice you can.
  • In a medium bowl, with a hand mixer on medium speed, mix together the powdered sugar, raspberry juice, and lemon juice until it's a pourable consistency. If it isn't thin enough, add a tbsp of milk.
  • Drizzle the glaze over the bread.
