Blueberry Bread Recipe With Tips For Perfection
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter melted and cooled
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1 1/4 cups fresh blueberries or frozen, see tips
Instructions
Preheat The Oven:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
Prepare The Dry Ingredients:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour with the baking powder and the salt. Reserve.
Mix The Wet Ingredients:
- In another bowl, you should put together sugar, vegetable oil, melted butter, egg, vanilla extract, and milk. Complete the mix until smooth.
Combine Wet And Dry:
- Little by little, add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix gently until combined. You can overmix and end up with a dense loaf, so just stop when you don’t see streaks of flour anymore.
Fold In Blueberries:
- Toss blueberries with a teaspoon of flour (helps prevent them from sinking). Fold into the batter.
Bake The Bread:
- Spread the batter evenly in a prepared loaf pan. Bake it for about 50-55 minutes or until center comes out clean when inserted with a toothpick.
Cool Before Slicing:
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes and then transfer it to cool completely on a wire rack.
