Here’s what you’ll need:
-
3 large eggs
-
1 cup sugar
-
2 tbsp lemon zest
-
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
-
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
-
½ cup butter, melted
-
1 tsp vanilla extract
-
1½ cups all-purpose flour (plus 1 tbsp for the berries)
-
¼ tsp salt
-
2 tsp baking powder
-
¾ cup blueberries (fresh or frozen—but fresh is 💯)
-
Powdered sugar, for topping
How to Make the Loaf of Dreams:
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F
Get your loaf pan ready—either grease it up or line it with parchment paper for a clean getaway.
2. Whisk those eggs and sugar like a pro.
In a large bowl, whisk eggs and sugar until your arm feels it. It should be pale and a little frothy—this is where the magic starts.
3. Add all the flavor.
Toss in that lemon zest, lemon juice, Greek yogurt, melted butter, and vanilla. Mix until it looks like sunshine in a bowl.
4. Dry ingredients, enter the chat.
Sift in the flour, salt, and baking powder. Stir until just combined—don’t overmix unless you like dense loaf sadness.
5. Blueberry time!
Rinse your blueberries, pat them dry(ish), then toss them in that extra tablespoon of flour. This stops them from sinking like Titanic in your batter.
6. Gently fold blueberries into the batter.
Be kind. Be gentle. Be the blueberry whisperer.
7. Pour into loaf pan & bake.
Smooth it out, tap it on the counter to settle any sneaky air pockets, and bake for 50–60 minutes. (Toothpick test = clean = done.)
8. Cool it. Literally.
Let the loaf cool before taking it out of the pan, unless you enjoy crumb explosions.
9. Sprinkle with powdered sugar like the baking star you are.
10. Slice. Serve. Smile. Repeat.
