Notes

  • Toss blueberries in a little flour before adding to prevent sinking.
  • Use frozen blueberries without thawing to avoid excess moisture.
  • Add a streusel topping for extra texture and sweetness.
  • Incorporate lemon juice along with zest for a brighter flavor.
  • Substitute part of the flour with whole wheat flour for a heartier loaf.
  • Store at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
  • Reheat slices briefly in the microwave or enjoy at room temperature.
  • This bread freezes well for up to 2 months.
