Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups (190g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ cup (115g) unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs, at room temperature
  • 1 tbsp lemon zest
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • ½ cup (120g) Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup (150g) fresh blueberries
  • 1 tbsp flour (for tossing blueberries)
  • 1 cup (120g) powdered sugar
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice (for glaze)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan. Line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. In a bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In another bowl, cream the unsalted butter with granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the lemon zest and lemon juice.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the Greek yogurt. Begin and end with the dry mix.
  5. Toss the blueberries with 1 tbsp of flour to prevent sinking. Gently fold them into the batter.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. For the glaze, mix the powdered sugar with lemon juice until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled loaf.

Notes

Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for better mixing. Toss blueberries in flour to prevent sinking. If the top browns too quickly, tent the loaf with foil.
