While I love a great, decadent chocolate cake or super-sweet sundae here and there, I definitely appreciate these desserts that are less focused on sugar, and more focused on incredible flavor and seasonal ingredients.
My general consensus is that slightly-less-sweet desserts are welcome far more often than those which take a different, more sugary approach. There’s a time and place for all sorts of sweets, but in my opinion, a little less sweet is the sweetest. 😉

Directions
- Preheat oven to 350℉ and grease a loaf pan with butter.
- Mix flour, baking powder and salt together in a medium bowl.
- In a large bowl, whisk sugar, honey, yogurt, oil and eggs. Fold in the flour mixture, but do not over-mix.
- Add in the berries.Â
- Flatten and smooth the top of the batter with a spatula.
- Bake for 60-70 minutes (rotating halfway through the cooking time) until the cake is golden brown and springs back when pressed in the center.
- Cool completely before removing from pan.
