Instructions
Making Lemon Blueberry Bread is a straightforward process when you follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy. Add the yogurt, eggs, lemon zest, and lemon juice, mixing until well combined.
4. Incorporate Mixtures: Gradually combine the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just blended. Be careful not to over-mix.
5. Fold in Blueberries: Gently fold the blueberries into the batter, ensuring they’re evenly distributed without crushing them.
6. Transfer Batter: Pour the mixture into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.
7. Bake: Place in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
8. Cool: Once baked, remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Glaze (Optional): If desired, drizzle a simple lemon glaze made with powdered sugar and lemon juice over the cooled bread for added sweetness.
