Ingredients

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 Tbs baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup blueberries fresh or frozen.
  • Glaze
  • ½ cup powder sugar
  • 2 tsp milk
  • ½ tsp lemon zest

Instructions

  1. Grease loaf pans (I use Crisco shortening).
  2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  3. In a small bowl, combine dry ingredients; sugar, flour, baking powder, and salt.
  4. In a medium bowl, beat the egg, milk and oil.
  5. Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet until just moist.
  6. Gently fold in flour covered blueberries into the batter.
  7. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan (about an inch and a half below to compensate for the rise.
  8. Bake 40 minutes if doing 3 miniature loaves. Bake 5o-60 minutes for a 1lb loaf. Bake until a toothpick comes out clean.
  9. Allow to cool.
  10. Make glaze and drizzle over the freshly baked loaf pan(s).

Recipe Notes

Make sure to mix your wet and dry ingredients together until just combined. You want to avoid overmixing the batter, otherwise, it can lead to a denser loaf of bread.
Make sure to toss the blueberries with 1-2 teaspoons of flour. This will help keep the berries suspended in the batter and prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the bread.
