Lemon and blueberries is one of my favorite flavor combinations. It’s so bright and fresh and makes for the perfect flavor for a spring or summer dessert. This lemon blueberry loaf is such a good recipe if you are also craving that lemon blueberry flavor like I always am!
I make the loaf with tons of lemon juice and zest and then coat the top with a blueberry glaze that makes the top so sticky and sweet.

Ingredients
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 stick (1/2 cup) butter, room temp
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tbsp lemon zest
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 1/2 cups +1 tbsp all purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup blueberries
Blueberry Glaze
- 1/2 cup blueberries
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 lemon juiced
- 2 tbsp milk
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs, lemon juice, lemon zest, and milk and beat again until combined.
- In a separate bowl, sift the flour, baking powder, and salt together. Slowly pour the flour into the butter mixture while beating.
- In a separate bowl, mix the blueberries with the 1 tbsp of flour and then fold into the batter.
- Pour batter into a loaf pan lined with parchment paper. Bake for 60 minutes until center is baked through all the way.
- While the loaf is baking, make the blueberry glaze by heating the blueberries and water in a small saucepan on low heat. Once the blueberries start to soften, mash them with the back of a fork or spatula as they cook.
- Once blueberries have simmered for about 6-8 minutes, pour the mixture through a sieve into a bowl. Place the blueberry juice in the fridge to completely cool to room temp.
- In a large bowl, whisk the powdered sugar, lemon juice, and milk together. Add the blueberry juice and whisk again. If the glaze is still too thick, add another 1/2 tsp of milk until you reach desired consistency.
- Let cake cool completely before pouring glaze over top. Top with more lemon zest and fresh blueberries and enjoy!
