- Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
Prepare the Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
Cream the Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Add the vanilla extract and mix well.
Incorporate Sour Cream and Lemon Zest: Mix in the sour cream and lemon zest until well combined.
Combine Dry and Wet Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in Blueberries: Gently fold in the blueberries coated in flour to prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the loaf.
Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Make Lemon Glaze: While the loaf is baking, prepare the lemon glaze. In a bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest until smooth.
Cool and Glaze: Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack. Drizzle the lemon glaze over the cooled loaf.
