Blueberry Lemon Yogurt Loaf

July 28, 2021 by Jaida 2 Comments

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

This Blueberry Lemon Yogurt Loaf is moist, sweet and tangy – full of big delicious blueberries and perfect for breakfast, a mid-day snack with coffee or tea, or dessert!

This post and recipe was created for #SummerDessertWeek! I was sent samples by some of the sponsor companies but as always opinions are 100% my own.

As I’ve maybe mentioned before (like a zillion times), I love all things lemon, and one of my favorite flavor combinations with lemon is blueberry – like my Blueberry Lemon Cheesecake Tart. I also love a good sweet bread that I can enjoy with breakfast or as a treat, and this Blueberry Lemon Yogurt Loaf fits that bill perfectly. It’s moist, and just a little sweet, a little tart and bursting with blueberry goodness. Oh, and the lemon glaze on top is the show-stopper. The perfect amount of lemony kick-in-the-mouth, balanced out withe sugary sweetness.

I can think of few better ways to start or end a day than with this delicious loaf of blueberry lemon delight!

What you need to make Blueberry Lemon Yogurt Loaf

This is just an overview. Full list of ingredients with measurements is available in the printable recipe card below!

For the Loaf

  • All-purpose flour, divided
  • Baking powder
  • Salt
  • Plain, fat free greek yogurt
  • Granulated sugar
  • Eggs
  • Lemon zest 
  • Vanilla extract
  • Unsalted butter
  • Blueberries

For the Lemon Glaze

  • Powdered sugar
  • Fresh lemon juice

How to make Blueberry Lemon Yogurt Loaf

Full Printable Recipe Below!

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray and dust with flour, tapping out excess (or use a cooking spray with flour in it!)
  2. In a medium bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
  3. In another, large bowl, mix the yogurt, sugar, eggs, lemon zest, vanilla and melted butter. Slowly mix in the flour mixture.
  4. In (yet) another bowl, combine the blueberries with the remaining tablespoon of flour, then fold them gently into the batter. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake 50 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
  5. To make the lemon glaze, mix the powdered sugar and 3 tablespoons of the lemon juice together in a small bowl. The mixture should be thick but pourable. Add up to another tablespoon of lemon juice if the mixture is too thick. Spoon the lemon glaze over the top of the loaf and let it drip down the sides. Allow the glaze harden for about 15 minutes before serving.

    I love lemon and blueberry together. My grandmother has blueberry bushes in her yard and I have picked a ton. I will be trying this recipe with my fresh blueberries!

Welcome!

As a busy wife and mom who also works a full time job, I try to have dinner done in 30 minutes or less so I can spend more of my evenings with my hubby and baby girl, so what you will find here are recipes that are mostly-healthy, quick and easy. Of course I have desserts, less healthy and more time-intensive meals as well (everything in moderation!), but all-in-all, you can count on weeknight friendly options, all made with love and dished up with a side of life, love, and family!
