To make this tangy lemon treat, I started by dumping some fresh blueberries into a bowl.

I combined some sugar and lemon zest in a small bowl.

I poured the sugar and lemon zest mixture into a large bowl.

I added some oil and eggs to the bowl and whisked the ingredients together.

 

 

Then I whisked in some Greek yogurt, lemon juice and vanilla extract.

I whisked some flour, salt and baking powder together and added them to the bowl with the wet ingredients.

I stirred until all of the ingredients were combined.

I added the blueberries to the bowl and gently folded them into the batter.

I poured the batter into a parchment lined loaf pan.

I placed the pan in the oven and baked the loaf until it was golden brown on top.

I allowed the lemon loaf to cool in the pan.

After about ten minutes I lifted the loaf from the pan and transferred it to a wire rack to finish cooling.

While the blueberry loaf was cooling, I poured some powder sugar, lemon juice and heavy cream into a bowl.

I mixed the ingredients together well to make a glaze.

One the lemon loaf had cooled I drizzled the prepared glaze over the top.

I garnished the loaf with some lemon slices and blueberries.

I placed the loaf in the refrigerator to let the glaze set.

Once the glaze was set the loaf was ready to slice.

This vibrant, refreshing treat is sure to be a hit.

Lemon and blueberries together are a delightful combination of flavours.

FAQS:

Can I use Frozen Blueberries?
I would not use frozen blueberries, because of the water content in them. It will be hard to coat with flour if they are wet.

Do I have to coat the blueberries with flour?
The flour makes the blueberries stay in place and not sink to the bottom of pan during baking.

Can I use a different oil than vegetable oil?
Yes, you can use any neutral flavor oil you desire.

If I don’t have Greek Yogurt can I use Sour Cream?
Yes, however its best to use whole sour cream rather than non fat.
