The ingredients in this raspberry lemon bread can easily be adjusted to your liking. If at all possible, use fresh fruit rather than frozen. We’ve made the mistake before, and it’s still great, but leans more to the soggier side. Store the leftovers in the fridge, and they will keep a little longer. In our home, they usually last about 3-4 day before they’re gone.
