This delicious lemon berry quick bread is made with whole wheat flour for more fiber, naturally sweetened with honey, and mixed with Yoplait® Mixed Berry Yogurt for extra moisture, flavor, and fruit. Yes, your favorite Yoplait® Mixed Berry Yogurt now has more fruit! That means more yummy berry flavor in this quick bread, along with calcium and vitamin D.
Not only is this lemon berry yogurt quick bread full of nutritious ingredients, but it’s also absolutely delicious. It’s moist and tender, yet hearty and slightly nutty with big, beautiful berries and a tangy lemon flavor that’s just sweet enough. The tart lemon glaze makes it extra special, but it tastes just as good without the glaze.
Bake a loaf of this beautiful lemon berry yogurt quick bread on the weekend for a week’s worth of breakfast and snacks for your family, or make it for a special occasion, such as Easter brunch. It’s sure to be a crowd pleaser no matter what!
