This simple to make Glazed Lemon Blueberry Loaf is made with pantry ingredients. It is moist, bright, and full of flavor! Perfectly sweet and tart!
Ingredients in Glazed Lemon Blueberry Loaf
- Oil This recipe calls a neutral oil like canola or vegetable.
- Granulated Sugar: Use regular granulated white sugar.
- Lemons: Use fresh lemon juice and zest.
- Eggs: Use large room temperature eggs for this recipe.
- Sour Cream: The recipe uses full-fat sour cream.
- Vanilla Extract: Do not use imitation vanilla. Use pure vanilla extract for the best flavor.
- All-purpose Flour: Make sure to use the spoon-and-level method to ensure the proper amount of flour is used. Adding too much flour will lead to dense and dry muffins.
- Baking Powder: The recipe calls for a full tablespoon of baking powder, which gives the loaf the perfect rise and texture.
- Baking Soda: Used in conjunction with baking powder for the perfect texture.
- Salt: Balances the flavor of the loaf.
- Blueberries: I like to use semi-sweet chocolate chips for this recipe.
- Powdered Sugar: Used to make the 2-ingredient lemon glaze.
Tips for the Best Glazed Lemon Blueberry Loaf
- Do not overmix once wet and dry ingredients are combined.
- Allow to cool almost completely in pan before transferring to a rack.
- Cool loaf completely before pouring over the lemon glaze.
Coating the Blueberries
Coating the blueberries in a few tablespoons of the dry mixture prevents them from sinking to the bottom of the muffins while they bake.
