Blueberry Bread Recipe

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour ((240g))
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• ¾ teaspoon salt
• 1 cup granulated sugar ((200g))
• ¼ cup vegetable oil ((60mL))
• ¼ cup unsalted butter (melted and cooled (56g))
• 1 large egg (room temperature)
• 2 teaspoons vanilla (extract)
• ½ cup milk ((120mL))
• 1¼ cups blueberries (fresh or frozen (180g))

Steps

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease an 8½x4½-inch loaf pan with butter or baking spray. (You can also line it with parchment paper.)

2. 2

   In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

3. 3

   In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, oil, melted and cooled butter, egg, and vanilla until smooth and lightened in color. Whisk in the milk until fully combined.

4. 4

   Place the blueberries in a medium mixing bowl. Sprinkle 2 teaspoons of the flour mixture over the blueberries. Gently toss to combine.

5. 5

   Pour the milk mixture into the remaining flour mixture and stir together with a spatula until almost fully combined and only a few streaks of dry flour remain. Gently but quickly fold the blueberry mixture into the batter. Pour into the prepared loaf pan.

6. 6

   Bake for 65 to 75 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes then turn it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
