Lemon-Blueberry Loaf image

No mixer needed for this colorful, tasty, lemon-blueberry loaf. A tried-and-true recipe I have used for many years. Like most sweet loaves, this one tastes best when wrapped tightly and allowed to sit for a day to let the flavors meld.

Time 1h25m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

cooking spray (such as Pam®)
¾ cup white sugar
¼ cup butter, melted and slightly cooled
¼ cup sour cream
2 eggs, beaten
1 medium lemon, zested and juiced, divided
⅓ cup milk
1 ⅔ cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
1 ¼ cups frozen blueberries, unthawed
1 tablespoon icing sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray.
  • Whisk together sugar, melted butter, sour cream, and lemon juice in a large bowl until thoroughly blended. Mix in milk.
  • Stir together flour, baking powder, salt, and lemon zest in a separate bowl. Remove 2 tablespoons flour mixture and place in a third, smaller bowl with frozen blueberries; stir to coat. Stir remaining flour mixture into milk-sour cream mixture with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, blending until just combined. Fold floured blueberries into batter and transfer into the prepared loaf pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, mix together icing sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest in a small bowl for the topping.
  • Remove loaf from the oven and immediately poke holes all over the top with a toothpick. Pour topping over the top of the loaf and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Remove loaf to a wire rack to cool completely.

This loaf was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. The lemon flavor was nice and bright, and the blueberries were a nice addition. I might try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

This loaf was a bit too dry for my taste, but it still had a nice flavor. The lemon and blueberries were a nice combination, but I might try adding some extra butter or oil next time to make it more moist.
