Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour the inside of a loaf pan.
- In a large bowl cream together the butter and sugar. Add the eggs and yogurt, lemon zest and juice and beat until everything is thoroughly mixed, about 30 seconds.
- In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and sea salt. Pour into the large bowl and beat the batter just until everything comes together. Stir in the fresh raspberries.
- Pour the batter into the loaf pan and bake in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the centre of the loaf comes out clean. (This cake takes longer to bake than a regular loaf cake.)
- Remove the loaf from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before carefully turning it out onto a cooling rack.
- For the icing;
- In a small bowl mix together the powdered sugar, lemon juice and the tiny pinch of sea salt. If you would like it a little runnier, you can add a small splash of water. If you prefer your icing a little thicker, you can add a touch more powdered sugar. Note: don't make the glaze until just before you use it as it will harden as is stands.
- To finish the loaf:
- Once the loaf is completely cool, drizzle the top with the glaze then sprinkle over the lemon zest, raspberries, and a little powdered sugar.
