  • 90 grams Flour (about ¾ cup)
  • 66 grams Sugar (about ⅓ cup)
  • ¼ tsp Salt
  • 5 Tbsp Butter, cold and cut into small cubes
Cake
  • 180 grams Flour (about 1 ½ cups)
  • 1 ½ tsp Baking Powder
  • ½ tsp Baking Soda
  • ½ tsp Salt
  • ¼ cup Vegetable Oil
  • ¾ cup Sugar
  • 2 Large Eggs
  • ¾ cup Plain Unsweetened Yogurt (can use Greek yogurt)

  • 1 ½ cups Raspberries, fresh or frozen
Lemon Drizzle
  • ½ cup Powdered Sugar
  • Pinch Salt
  • ½ Tbsp Milk or Milk Alternative
  • ½ Tbsp Lemon Juice

Method
 

Make the Crumb Topping
  1. In a bowl, combine all crumb ingredients. With a pastry cutter, blend the ingredients until they come together and form a sand-like texture. Alternatively, you can do this in a stand mixer with a paddle attachment or in a food processor.
Make the Cake
  1. Preheat oven to 350℉ and spray a 9-inch loaf pan with cooking spray.
  2. Add flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to a bowl and mix with a wire whisk or fork until evenly blended.
  3. In a separate, larger bowl, add oil, sugar, eggs, yogurt, and vanilla. Mix using a whisk, spatula, or spoon until evenly blended.
  4. Add dry ingredients to the wet ingredients bowl. Mix until lumps have mostly disappeared, being careful not to over-mix (so do this manually rather than with a mixer).
  5. Transfer batter to the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle raspberries on top and gently press them partway into the batter.
  6. Sprinkle crumb topping on top, gently squeezing fingers while doing so to create larger crumbs.
  7. Bake for 55-65 minutes. When done, test with a toothpick—when inserted into the cake, it should come out clean and free of batter. If the raspberries are in the way and making it difficult, gently move some aside with a butterknife and try again.
  8. When baked, allow to cool. Transfer to a wire rack when safe to do so.
Make the Lemon Drizzle
  1. Combine all drizzle ingredients in a small bowl or cup and stir until thoroughly mixed. Using a spoonful at a time, drizzle over the cake.
