--Light-- Berry Loaf image

If you like berries, and light desserts, then try this. Its a light spring/summer dessert my teacher gave me... I like to freeze the remaining 1 cup of berries and instead of garnishing the loaf with it, I pour some whipping cream on it as a nice side dish.

This loaf is the perfect summer treat! It's light and refreshing, with just the right amount of sweetness. I love serving it with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream.

Not a fan of this recipe. The loaf was dry and crumbly, and the flavors were bland.

This loaf was a bit too dense for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I would try using a different recipe next time.
