  • Total Time: 1 hour 5 minutes - 1 hour 15 minutes
  • Yield: 1 loaf

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt (preferably plain or vanilla)
  • ½ cup vegetable oil or melted unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest (from fresh lemons)
  • ¼ cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries (or frozen, thawed)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a loaf pan with butter or non-stick spray and line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
  3. In another bowl, beat eggs and sugar until light and fluffy. Add Greek yogurt, oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract; mix until combined.
  4. Gradually fold dry ingredients into wet mixture until just combined. Gently fold in blueberries without crushing them.
  5. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan. Smooth the surface and bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  6. Allow the loaf to cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then transfer to a wire rack. Slice and serve plain, dusted with powdered sugar, or topped with Greek yogurt.

Notes

  • For added lemon flavor, increase lemon zest or juice according to taste.
  • Use fresh blueberries for a more vibrant flavor; frozen blueberries should be thawed and drained.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days, or refrigerate for up to a week.
  • Wrap tightly with plastic wrap before refrigerating to maintain moisture.
  • Freeze slices individually for quick snacks—wrap each in plastic wrap and store in a resealable bag.
