Berry Lemon Bread

I am not sure exactly where I found this recipe but I do believe that it was a fellow blogger. I am so sorry I cannot remember who it was because I would love to give that person the credit for this lovely bread.

Berry Lemon Bread

1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
¾ cup sugar
½ teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup lemon yogurt
¼ cup canola oil
2 teaspoon lemon zest
1 teaspoon lemon extract
1 cup berries

(I used raspberries)


Combine dry ingredients in a bowl. In another bowl combine eggs, yogurt, sugar, oil, extract, and lemon zest. Add dry ingredients just until moistened. Gently fold in berries.

Spray bread pan with a nonstick spray. Bake at 350 degrees for 60 minutes. Cool 10 minutes in the pan and then transfer to wire rack to cool completely.

Note: It can be topped with a Lemon glaze of confectioner sugar and lemon juice which I did.



It went together very easily and came out of the pan just beautifully.

It was a perfect little nosh for afternoon tea, a light dessert and breakfast.

It was moist and delicious and I will definitely be making this again. It also kept nicely for a couple of days. This fresh tasting little bread/cake would also make a nice hostess gift or if you just needed to take something to a friend. I am glad I have this recipe in my files.

Thank you for visiting my blog and please do come again.
