Bright & Sunny Raspberry Lemon Loaf ☀️


Good afternoon Reader!

Happy Friday! If I don't love the way a recipe looks then I typically don't promote it much...which was the case with this Raspberry Lemon Loaf Cake. So I updated the photos and the entire blog post and I'm in love with it all over again!

As you can see from the photos, the crumb is light, fluffy and perfectly moist. It's loaded with fresh raspberries and lemon zest, and then covered in a lemony lemon glaze.

In a word, perfect.

I made some minor edits to the recipe: a wee more flour, the addition of baking powder to the leavening, a touch more salt and finally, I lowered the temperature and baked it for a bit longer (because I thought overall the exterior became too dark while baking at the higher temp).

Not only are there new photos (that I love), but I included step-by-step photos and got rid of any excess content above the recipe.

I also included a round-up of new recipes to cover your weekend baking needs. Scroll below the photos of the Raspberry Lemon Loaf below to see.

Cheers to a happy weekend!

Sour Cream
Coffee Cake Muffins

The most delicious bakery-style muffins are topped with spiced streusel and have a cinnamon-brown sugar ribbon throughout.

Soft & Chewy
Peanut Butter Cookies

This one-bowl recipe yields PB cookies that are soft, chewy and basically the ideal bendy cookie texture (bonus: they're ready in 30 minutes!).

Malted Chocolate Chip Cookies

Loaded with a delicious combination of flavors (brown butter, dark brown sugar, vanilla and malted milk powder), these cookies are the ultimate chocolate chip cookie experience!

Brownie-Like Coffee Toffee Cookies

Picture the most perfect soft, double chocolate cookie base and then load it up with the flavor of espresso, crunchy milk chocolate-toffee candy bars and bits of melty chocolate puddles.

Bubbly Pizza Focaccia

Bubbly focaccia dough is covered with my favorite pizza sauce, some low-moisture mozzarella and finally spicy pepperoni. See recipe for overnight focaccia instructions.

5-Ingredient Pizza Sauce

My favorite 5-ingredient pizza sauce uses pantry staples and no-cooking to make the most delicious pizza sauce ever! Ready in just 3 minutes, you will love this delicious recipe!

Good afternoon Reader! I am a muffin baker through and through. I feel about muffins the same way I do about scones...and cookies...and so many other delicious things we bake. When done right they're an effortless way to elevate your mornings whilst hopefully padding around the kitchen still in your pjs and fluffy socks. Last spring Stella took me to Cafe Solstice in Seattle and we ate the yummiest Blackberry Streusel Muffins. I'm talking A++. I promptly flew home and made these Raspberry...

Hi Reader! I am extremely fussy when it comes to scones. They have to be moist, flavorful and taste just as great the next day. I've been on a bit of a bakery bender this year, visiting them wherever I go. If you live on the central coast of California, I cannot recommend the croissants at Bread Bike in San Luis Obispo enough. Truly transcendent. Perfection. The individual Chicken Pot Pies from Macrina Bakery in Seattle? I crave them (and made my own version if we're interested 👀). The...
