Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 2.25 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted cooled slightly
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 0.5 cup milk or buttermilk
  • 0.25 cup fresh lemon juice about 1 large lemon
  • 1.5 tablespoon lemon zest from 1-2 lemons
  • 2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1.5 cup fresh blueberries tossed in 0.5 tablespoon flour to prevent sinking

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan and line with parchment paper for easy removal.
  • In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  • In a large bowl beat the melted butter and sugar until combined. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing after each addition. Stir in the lemon zest, lemon juice, milk, and vanilla.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • Gently fold the blueberries into the batter, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  • Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs. If the top browns too quickly, tent with foil for the last 10–15 minutes.
  • Allow the bread to cool in the pan 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing. Optionally, drizzle with a simple lemon glaze.

Notes

For best results use fresh blueberries. The batter can be frozen before baking—wrap tightly and bake from frozen, adding 10–15 minutes to the bake time.
