This lemon blueberry bread is a family favorite. I drizzle a sweet and tangy glaze on top for a special treat.

Ingredients


  • 1 cup white sugar

  • ⅓ cup melted butter

  • 2 large eggs

  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • ½ cup milk

  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries

  • ½ cup chopped walnuts

  • 2 tablespoons grated lemon zest

Glaze Topping

  • ¼ cup white sugar

  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice

Description

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease an 8x4-inch loaf pan.

  2. Prepare the bread batter: Beat sugar, butter, eggs, and lemon juice together in a large mixing bowl.

  3. Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl. Stir into egg mixture alternately with milk. Fold in blueberries, nuts, and lemon zest. Pour batter into the prepared pan.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean, 60 to 70 minutes. Cool bread in the pan for 10 minutes.

  5. Meanwhile, prepare the glaze topping: Stir sugar and lemon juice together in a small bowl until smooth.

  6. Remove bread from the pan and drizzle with glaze. Continue to cool on a wire rack.
