Lemon Blueberry Greek Yogurt Bread Delightful and Easy
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain, unsweetened)
- 1 cup sugar (or honey)
- 2 large eggs
- 0.25 cup vegetable oil (or melted coconut oil)
- 1 large lemon (zest)
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 cup fresh blueberries (or frozen, if preferred)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, sugar (or honey), eggs, vegetable oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly until smooth.
- Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing as this can make the bread dense.
- Fold in the blueberries carefully to prevent them from breaking apart.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Once baked, remove from the oven and let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
💡 Chef's Notes
For best results, use fresh blueberries. Can substitute honey for sugar.
