Ingredients
  

  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1/4 cup warm milk 110°F
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar divided
  • 4 large eggs at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
  • 2 tablespoons raspberry jam
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Method
 

  1. In a small bowl, combine warm milk, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the remaining sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Add the yeast mixture and mix until combined.
  3. Gradually add flour and salt, mixing until a dough forms.
  4. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  5. Incorporate the softened butter, kneading until fully combined.
  6. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-2 hours, or until doubled in size.
  7. While the dough is rising, prepare the raspberry swirl by combining raspberries, raspberry jam, and lemon juice in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook for about 5 minutes until the raspberries break down. Remove from heat and let cool.
  8. Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick.
  9. Spread the raspberry mixture evenly over the dough.
  10. Roll the dough tightly into a log, pinching the seams to seal. Place the log seam-side down in a greased loaf pan.
  11. Cover the loaf with a kitchen towel and let it rise again for about 30-45 minutes.
  12. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Bake the loaf for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  13. Let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
