Ingredients

  • cup Unsalted butter room temperature
  • 1 cup White granulated sugar
  • 3 tablespoon Lemon juice
  • 1 ½ teaspoon Lemon zest
  • 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
  • 2 Large eggs room temperature
  • 1 ½ cups All-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • ½ cup Buttermilk room temperature
  • 1 ¾ cup Fresh blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon Milk
  • 6-8 tablespoon Powdered Sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F and spray an 8X4 loaf pan with non stick spray and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside. In a small bowl, mix fresh washed blueberries and cornstarch until blueberries are fully coated. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, cream together butter and white sugar for 2 minutes. The butter will be very light in color and fluffy. Add in lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla. Add in eggs one at a time. Add in ⅓ of dry ingredients, then ½ of the butter milk and repeat until ending on dry ingredients. Gently fold in blueberries. Pour batter into loaf pan.
  • Bake bread for 50-60 minutes. The bread is finished when golden brown on the top and when a toothpick is inserted it comes out clean. Let sit in pan for 10 minutes. Then remove bread to cooling rack.
  • When bread is completely cool, glaze the top. In a small bowl add the milk and slowly add the powdered sugar and whisk. The glaze should be thick and easily pourable. Add in the powdered sugar one tablespoon at a time until desired consistency is reached. Pour glaze over the top of bread. Keep in fridge until ready to serve.
