Lemon Raspberry Sweet Quick Bread

Sharing is caring!

Lemon Raspberry Sweet Quick Bread – quick and easy sweet bread with fresh raspberries and a hint of lemon.

I blame this bread on a recent sale in our grocery store. A container of gorgeous raspberries was just a dollar and a foodie that I am – I grabbed five of them.

This sweet quick bread happened the same day as I was so anxious to bake with the berries. Because quick breads are the easiest and you can make them with pretty much any fruit.

The Spring is almost here! The time change is this weekend and our forecast shows 70s next week! All this excitement makes make want to bake and cook with fresh ingredients. Berries and citrus are just that! My favorite flavors that always bring a little bit of Spring to my baked goods.

Assuming that you may be doing some grocery shopping this weekend, I hope that you will consider making this bread so add raspberries to your list. It’s worth it – I promise!

Enjoy!

9. Cool for 10 minutes in the pan. Invert onto a cooling rack and cool completely.
