Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups Bob's Red Mill 1 to 1 Gluten free baking flour All purpose flour can be used if you want to make this recipe non-gluten free.
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup plain greek yogurt
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons packed lemon zest
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon lemon extract
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 8oz (1cup) fresh or frozen raspberries. If fresh, roughly chop so they don't sink. Blueberries may also be used!
Loaf glaze
  • 1 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
    Line the bottom of a loaf pan with parchment paper and coat with non-stick cooking spray.
    In a small bowl, whisk together dry ingredients.
    In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together yogurt, eggs. lemon zest, extracts and oil.
    Add dry ingredients to wet and mix until well blended.
    Add raspberries (fresh or frozen is fine) and gently incorporate into batter.
    Pour batter into prepared pan and bake 50-60 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.
    Allow to cool for 1-15 minutes especially if loaf is gluten free because it will easily crumble while hot.
    Using a sharp knife, slice around the inside of the loaf pan to loosen the loaf, and gently release loaf and set on a cooling rack.
    Top loaf with glaze while it's warm.
    *Store leftovers inside an airtight bag or container and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
Loaf glaze
  1. Whisk together ingredients and pour glaze over warm loaf.

Notes

When using fresh fruit I have found it works best to roughly chop so that the fruit doesnt sink to the bottom of the loaf. 
If using frozen fruit, be sure to keep it frozen until right before you stir it into the batter. 
When using both fresh or frozen, be sure your batter is fully mixed before adding the fruit, then very gently fold fruit into batter and quickly add to the pan.
