Description

A delightful loaf that perfectly balances the tartness of fresh lemons and the sweetness of juicy blueberries.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup crumble topping (optional)


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan.
  2. In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the eggs, sour cream, lemon juice, and lemon zest, and mix well.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the blueberries.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and sprinkle crumble topping on top if desired.
  8. Bake for about 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
