How to make it

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
  • Chop the almond into small pieces. Sort through the raspberries, but DO NOT rinse under water.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition, then add the almond extract.
  • Sift the dry ingredients together.
  • Whisk the milk and creme fraiche together. Alternately incorporate the dry ingredients and creme fraiche mixture into the batter, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Gently stir in the fruit and nuts.
  • Spread the batter into the loaf pan and bake for about 1 hour. The bread will be lightly browned and a skewer inserted in the center will come out clean when done.
  • Variation: For a delicious winter variation, substitute 1 cup dried apricots for the raspberries. Cut the apricots into small pieces and plump them in 1/2 cup hot water. Drain any remaining liquid before adding them to the dough.
