Why This Recipe Is So Delicious
This bread is a perfect balance of sweet and tart, with juicy blueberries and bright lemon flavor in every bite. It’s moist, tender, and easy to make, making it a great treat for breakfast or an afternoon snack.
Kitchen Tricks
- Use fresh or frozen blueberries, but if frozen, do not thaw to prevent them from bleeding into the batter.
- Gently fold the berries into the batter to keep them from breaking apart.
- Let the bread cool completely before slicing to help it hold together better.

Directions
Gently heat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan so the bread doesn’t stick. In a small bowl, mix together the sugar, flour, butter, lemon zest, and cinnamon for the topping until it’s well combined. In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, milk, melted butter, and egg until smooth. Then, add the flour and baking powder to the wet ingredients and gently stir everything together. Fold in the blueberries and extra lemon zest to give it a fresh bite. Pour the batter into your prepared pan, then sprinkle the topping evenly over the top. Pop it in the oven and bake for about 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let it cool a bit before slicing and enjoying!
How To Serve It Best
Serve slices plain or spread with a little butter or cream cheese. It also pairs well with a cup of tea or coffee for a simple and satisfying snack.
Food Storage Guide
Store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. For longer storage, wrap tightly and freeze for up to two months; thaw at room temperature before serving.
