Ingredients
For the bread:
- 6 tablespoons butter room temperature
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 egg room temperature
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup milk
- lemon grated rind (zest), of 1
- ¾ cup raspberries fresh
For the glaze:
- lemon juice of 1
- ¼ cup sugar
For serving:
- 1 teaspoon powdered sugar optional, aka confectioner's sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and 1 cup of sugar. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Add the dry mixture to the creamed mixture alternately with the milk.
- Stir in the lemon rind and raspberries.
- Turn the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- Bake 45 minutes to 1 hour or until a tester inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean.
- While the cake bakes, stir together the 1/4 cup sugar and lemon juice. Stir the mixture occasionally while the cake is baking. The sugar will melt into the juice as it sits.
- Remove the bread from the oven and immediately pierce it all over with a skewer or toothpick. Spoon the lemon glaze evenly over the cake.
- Cool it in the pan for 15-20 minutes. Turn out onto a rack and cool completely. Dust with powdered sugar before serving, if desired.

Notes
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or well-wrapped in the refrigerator for up to a week.
- To freeze, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, followed by a layer of foil. It will keep for about 3 months in the freezer. Thaw it at room temperature before serving.
