This lemon blueberry bread is bright, fresh, flavorful, and so fun! Fresh blueberries and lemon zest bake together into a tender, moist loaf. With a crumb that practically melts in your mouth, it is the perfect breakfast, afternoon snack, or dessert!
Ingredients
Bread
- 1 tbsp lemon zest
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 ¼ cups white whole wheat flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp sea salt
- ¾ cup unsalted butter slightly softened
- 3 eggs
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 3 tbsp milk
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
Frosting
- 1 cup vanilla frosting
- ¼ cup blueberry jam
Instructions
- First, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line an 8 inch by 4 inch bread loaf pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the lemon zest, sugar, white whole wheat flour, baking soda, and sea salt. Stir until combined.
- Using a hand mixer, add in the softened butter. Mix until crumbly and until no large clumps of butter remain.
- Then, add in the eggs, fresh lemon juice, and milk. Stir together.
- Toss the blueberries in 1 tablespoon of white whole wheat flour. Then, carefully fold them into the batter.
- Transfer the bread batter into the lined pan. Smooth into an even layer.
- Bake for 55 to 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Allow the bread to fully cool before making the homemade frosting.
- Once the bread has cooled, make the vanilla frosting. Combine the vanilla frosting and jam in a small bowl. Frost, slice, and serve!
Notes
- For the best flavor, use fresh lemon zest and juice.
- Mix the butter until crumbly and until no large clumps of butter remain.
- Toss the blueberries with the flour to prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the loaf.
- Bake this bread until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out mostly clean.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days.

- We love using our homemade vanilla frosting and homemade blueberry jam instead of store bought versions. You can use store bought to save time, but look for brands without too much added sugar.
