Lemon Blueberry Bread Ingredients
all-purpose flour – make sure you properly measure the flour. Loosen your flour up by stirring the flour in the container, spoon it into the measuring cup and then use the back of a knife to level the cup, sweeping the excess flour off the top of the measuring cup.
baking powder – the leavening agent in this bread which helps the blueberry bread to rise.
salt – a critical component in this recipe as it helps to intensify the lemon and blueberry flavors.
unsalted butter – you can use salted if that is all you have on hand. Cut the amount of salt in half.
sugar – granulated sugar gives this lemon blueberry loaf a lovely sweetness and helps balance out the tartness from the lemons
eggs – brings the mixture together.
vanilla extract – use the real stuff here, it adds so much flavor!
fresh grated lemon zest and lemon juice – for a delicious lemon flavor. Zest your lemons first before juicing.
milk -loosens up the batter.
blueberries – you can use fresh or frozen but please remember to toss them in flour before adding to the batter. This keeps them from sinking to the bottom while the bread is baking.
