Method
10m1h
- Preheat the oven to 175°C. Grease and flour an 8.5x4.5x2.5 inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, sift together 190g of flour, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Set aside.
- In another bowl, whisk together 240g of Greek yogurt, 200g of sugar, 3 large eggs, 2 tablespoons of lemon zest, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 120ml of vegetable oil until smooth.
- Gradually mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined.
- Toss 225g of blueberries with 1 tablespoon of flour to coat, then fold them gently into the batter. This helps prevent the berries from sinking.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for about 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- While the loaf bakes, prepare the lemon syrup by simmering 80ml of lemon juice with 1 tablespoon of sugar until the sugar dissolves.
- Once baked, cool the loaf in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Poke the loaf with a skewer and drizzle with the lemon syrup.
- For the glaze, mix 120g of icing sugar with 60ml of lemon juice and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Adjust the consistency with milk if needed. Drizzle over the cooled loaf.
- Allow the glaze to set before slicing and serving.
Ingredients
- 3 Egg Large
- 3ml Salt
- 120g Icing Sugar
- Milk as needed for glaze consistency
- 120ml Vegetable Oil
Notes
For a variation, try using raspberries or mixed berries instead of blueberries.
You can also substitute olive oil for vegetable oil for a richer flavour.
If you're catering to dietary restrictions, gluten-free flour can be used as well as dairy-free yogurt for a vegan version.
