Lemon Blueberry Bread: An Amazing Ultimate Recipe


  • Author: Julien Moreau
  • Total Time: 59 minute

Ingredients

– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 cup granulated sugar
– 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1 cup plain yogurt or sour cream
– 2 large eggs
– 1/4 cup vegetable oil
– 1 tablespoon grated lemon zest
– 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
– 1 tablespoon flour (for tossing with blueberries)


Instructions

Making Lemon Blueberry Bread is a breeze if you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat your Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a standard 9×5-inch loaf pan.

2. Prepare Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of flour, 1 cup of sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

3. Prepare Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, mix together yogurt (or sour cream), eggs, vegetable oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.

4. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; be careful not to overmix.

5. Toss Blueberries: In a small bowl, toss the blueberries with 1 tablespoon of flour. This helps prevent them from sinking in the batter.

6. Fold in Blueberries: Gently fold the coated blueberries into the batter, ensuring they are evenly distributed.

7. Transfer to Pan: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

8. Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

9. Cool: Once baked, remove the loaf from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 15 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

10. Prepare Lemon Glaze (Optional): If desired, mix together powdered sugar and fresh lemon juice to create a glaze for drizzling over the cooled bread.
