Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a larger mixing bowl, combine the sugar, melted butter, milk, egg, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and well incorporated.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring just until a thick batter forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the fresh raspberries and lemon zest, ensuring the raspberries are evenly distributed but not crushed.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
If desired, dust the top with powdered sugar before serving. Slice and enjoy!
