Raspberry Muffin Bread

You’re probably noticing that I have a bit of a thing for raspberries, aren’t you?

If not, you should definitely go check out my raspberry slab pie, raspberry vodka lemonade, and raspberry tart!

I will never understand the people who turn down raspberries. I mean, are you even human? How is this a thing to not like the most perfect berry in all the world?

Maybe I’m a little crazy about raspberries. It’s possible.

Anyway, one of the more popular recipes on this site is this blueberry muffin bread. It’s basically a giant muffin baked in a loaf pan and it’s divine. I’m actually not the world’s biggest fan of blueberries though. I like them in muffins just fine. I won’t die if you put them in my pancakes. But give me a handful of them to eat plain? Nope. Not happening. I’d rather starve.

So, I was pretty certain that it’d be easy for me to make an already favorite recipe (the blueberry muffin bread) into something I loved even more. Enter raspberries. Except, not just straight up raspberries. Raspberry pastry filling. Swirled all throughout the bread.

You see, I’ve come to realize that the reason most people don’t like raspberries is because of the seeds. Well, did you know that you can buy seedless raspberry jam and/or pastry filling? You totally can. It’s perfect in this bread!

I made you a little video to show you just how easy the whole process is!

The batter comes together really quickly. I use buttermilk in this one to keep things super moist and fluffy. If you don’t have true buttermilk on hand, just add a little bit of vinegar to regular milk and let it set for about 5 minutes. It’s a pretty easy swap!

Of course, you can totally feel free to swap in any flavor of jam you’re loving at the moment, but raspberry will always be my personal favorite.

Hope you guys give this a try and report back!
