Ingredients:

  • 2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • 1 ½ tsp (7g) baking powder
  • ½ tsp (3g) salt
  • ½ cup (113g) unsalted butter, softened
  • ½ cup (120g) full-fat sour cream
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 tsp (5ml) pure vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups (200g) fresh black raspberries
  • ½ cup (60g) powdered sugar
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp (5ml) melted butter

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and line it with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until pale and fluffy (about 3 minutes).
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract and sour cream, mixing until the batter is smooth.
  5. Gently stir the dry ingredients into the wet batter using a spatula; stop the moment no streaks of flour remain.
  6. In a small bowl, toss the black raspberries with one tablespoon of the flour mixture to prevent sinking.
  7. Gently fold the floured berries into the batter using a wide spatula, ensuring even distribution.
  8. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Prepare the glaze by whisking together powdered sugar, lemon juice, and melted butter until smooth, then drizzle over the cooled cake.
