Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 1/2 cups blueberries (fresh or frozen)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease an 8.5×4.5×2.5 inch loaf pan with butter or cooking spray and dust with flour.
- In a mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
- In another bowl, whisk the Greek yogurt, sugar, eggs, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil until smooth.
- Gradually mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined.
- Coat the blueberries in flour to prevent sinking and gently fold them into the batter.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and bake for about 50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- While baking, prepare the lemon syrup by heating lemon juice with sugar until dissolved.
- Cool the loaf for ten minutes in the pan before transferring it to a rack; poke holes in it and pour over syrup.
- For the glaze, whisk icing sugar with lemon juice until smooth; drizzle over cooled loaf.
