Ingredients

12 servings
Salt0.25 tsp
Butter6 tbsp
Sugar0.75 cup
Eggs2 large
Blueberries1.5 cups

Method

1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.

2

In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

3

In another small bowl, toss blueberries with cornstarch until coated; this prevents them from sinking during baking.

4

In a large bowl, cream together softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes.

5

Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.

6

Stir in lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract.

7

Alternate adding flour mixture and Greek yogurt, beginning and ending with flour. Mix gently until just combined.

8

Fold in cornstarch-coated blueberries, being careful not to crush them.

9

Pour batter into prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.

10

Bake for 45–55 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with only a few moist crumbs and the top is golden brown.

11

Let loaf cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
