Equipment

9x5-inch Loaf Pan

Ingredients

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated white sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup low-fat lemon- flavored yogurt
1/4 cup vegetable or canola oil
1 large egg
2 large egg whites
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
1 cup fresh raspberries or frozen

Instructions

Start by preheating your oven to 350°F. Then, take a 9×5-inch loaf pan and generously coat it with non-stick spray. Set it aside for now.
In a spacious bowl, combine the following dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set this mixture aside.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the yogurt, oil, egg, egg whites, and lemon zest. Once these wet ingredients are well combined, you can proceed to the next step.
Add the wet ingredient mixture to the bowl containing the dry ingredients. Gently stir until the ingredients are just moistened. Be careful not to overmix; it's okay if there are a few lumps remaining. Now, carefully fold in the raspberries to the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Make sure it's evenly distributed.
Bake the loaf in the preheated oven for approximately 50 minutes. To check for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of the loaf; if it comes out clean, your bread is ready.
Let the loaf cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Afterward, remove it from the pan and allow it to cool completely before slicing.
