The Best Raspberry Bread

Recipe Description

This recipe makes The Best Raspberry Bread you will taste!  It’s really dense and moist and each mouthful bursts with raspberry flavor! The first time I made this bread I used frozen raspberries, but the freezing process meant they had too much water which made the bread quite soggy and difficult to cook. Since then I’ve always used fresh raspberries and I suggest you do too!

To make the bread, mix the dry ingredients together in a large bowl. Mix the wet ingredients in a separate bowl and combine them. Then add flour-coated raspberries – coating them in flour helps to minimise sinking while the bread is baking. Bake for 45-60 minutes and then enjoy the gorgeous moist berry bread! The bread will keep in an airtight container for up to a week. 

To make The Best Raspberry Bread, you will need the following ingredients:

I made The Best Raspberry Bread for my kids and they were beyond excited! The flavor is simply amazing, especially with fresh raspberries. This was so easy to follow too! I’ll always use fresh berries now. My whole family gobbled it up in one afternoon!
