Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 2 cups All-purpose flour Spoon and level it to avoid packing.
  • 2 tsp Baking powder Ensure it's not expired for proper lift.
  • 1 tsp Salt Enhances sweetness.
Wet Ingredients
  • 1 cup Unsalted butter Softened, not melted.
  • 1 cup Granulated sugar Keeps the crumb light.
  • 2 large Eggs For structure and richness.
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract Do not skip; enhances flavor.
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt or sour cream Adds moisture and tenderness.
Add-ins
  • 1 cup Fresh or frozen raspberries If using frozen, do not thaw.
  • 1 cup White chocolate Chips or chopped bar for texture.
Optional Ingredients
  • 1 tsp Lemon zest Adds brightness to raspberry flavor.
  • 1 cup Powdered sugar For optional glaze.
  • 1 splash Milk For optional glaze.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a standard loaf pan and line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then mix in the vanilla.
  5. Mix in the yogurt or sour cream for moisture.
  6. Gradually add the dry mixture in two or three additions, mixing until just combined—do not overmix.
  7. Gently fold in the raspberries and white chocolate using a light hand.
Baking
  1. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top.
  2. Bake for 55 to 70 minutes, checking around 50 minutes with a toothpick until mostly clean.
  3. Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before lifting it out and cooling completely on a rack.

Notes

For best results, allow all ingredients to come to room temperature before mixing. Do not skip the cooling step for clean slices. This loaf freezes well; slice and wrap individually to store for up to 2 months.
