A moist and flavorful blueberry poppy seed bread with a hint of lemon, perfect for breakfast or a snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp poppy seeds
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted (and slightly cooled)
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (or sour cream)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp lemon zest (optional but amazing)
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice (optional)
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries (or frozen, do not thaw)
  • 1 tbsp flour (to toss with blueberries)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and poppy seeds.
  3. In a second bowl, whisk melted butter, sugar, eggs, yogurt, vanilla, and lemon zest/juice (if using) until smooth.
  4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir just until combined (don’t overmix).
  5. Toss blueberries with 1 tbsp flour, then gently fold into the batter.
  6. Pour batter into the loaf pan and smooth the top. Sprinkle a few extra blueberries on top if you want.
  7. Bake for 55–65 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean (a few moist crumbs are okay).
  8. Cool in the pan 15 minutes, then lift out and cool completely before slicing.

Notes

  • Use fresh blueberries for the best flavor.
  • If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them before adding to the batter.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
