Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup yogurt
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan to prepare it for baking.
- Mix together the yogurt, sugar, and vegetable oil until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Add in the eggs, vanilla extract, and lemon zest; continue mixing until everything is well combined and silky.
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in another bowl until nicely incorporated.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined — be careful not to overmix!
- Fold in the fresh blueberries and lemon juice, allowing that beautiful blue color to swirl through the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the center.
