How to Make Raspberry Blueberry Tea Bread

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x9 inch square metal baking pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon baking soda. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 tablespoon orange zest.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with 1 cup milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in 1 1/2 cups fresh raspberries and 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries.
  7. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  8. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. The bread should be golden brown on top.
  9. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Once cooled, slice and serve. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
