Blueberry Lemon Loaf Recipe
Hi y'all!
I'm excited to share my recipe for a delicious blueberry lemon loaf with you. Baking has always been a passion of mine, and I learned everything I know from my Granny Sue. She has a secret rule of thumb for creating the most mouthwatering desserts - 1 cup of self-rising flour, 1 cup of buttermilk, and 1 stick of butter. I'm happy to say that I've taken this tried and true method and created my own recipe for a blueberry lemon loaf that is to die for. It's the perfect balance of sweet and tart, and it's so easy to make. Trust me, if you give this recipe a try, you'll be hooked!
I learned to bake from my Granny Sue, and I have so many fond memories of spending time in the kitchen with her, learning all of her secrets and techniques. I'm grateful for the time we spent together, and I feel lucky to have learned from the best.
This blueberry lemon loaf is the perfect dessert for any occasion. It's perfect for a summer BBQ, a potluck with friends, or just because you have a craving for something sweet. The combination of juicy blueberries and tart lemon is a match made in heaven, and the addition of a stick of butter in the recipe ensures that this loaf is super moist and flavorful.
Not only is this blueberry lemon loaf delicious, it's also easy to make. The ingredients are probably things you already have in your pantry, and the instructions are straightforward. All you need is some self-rising flour, buttermilk, oil, sugar, lemon zest, and of course, fresh blueberries. Preheat your oven, mix the ingredients together, pour the batter into a loaf pan, and bake for about an hour and a half. It's that simple!
This blueberry lemon loaf is so tasty, you won't be able to resist going back for seconds (or thirds!). Once it has cooled, slice it up and serve. You can enjoy it as is, or add a little powdered sugar on top for an extra touch of sweetness.
I hope you'll give this recipe a try and see for yourself just how delicious and easy it is. If you do, be sure to let me know what you think in the comments. Happy baking!
