Description

A moist, flavorful loaf packed with sweet blueberries and vanilla, perfect for back-to-school lunches or an afternoon snack.


Ingredients

  • ½ cup milk

  • ¼ cup canola oil

  • 1 large egg

  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

  • ¾ cup granulated sugar

  • 2 teaspoons baking powder

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • 1 ½ cups blueberries (fresh or frozen)

For the vanilla glaze (optional):

  • ¾ cup powdered sugar

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 2 teaspoons water

To decorate:

  • Fresh blueberries



Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8 x 4 inch loaf pan, or line with parchment paper.

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, oil, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.

  • Sift in the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir gently until just combined.

  • Pour ⅓ of the batter into the loaf pan. Toss the blueberries in a tablespoon of flour and fold them into the remaining batter.

  • Pour the batter into the loaf pan and bake for 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  • Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove from the pan and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

  • For the glaze, mix powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and water. Drizzle over the cooled bread if desired.

Notes

  • Let the bread cool completely before glazing, or the glaze may melt off.

  • Ensure the wet ingredients are at room temperature for better mixing and texture.

  • Frozen blueberries work great too, just remember to toss them in flour to prevent sinking!
