Blueberry Lemon Loaf - A Taste For Blueberries #2 - a sweet bread filled with blueberries and lemon

Blueberry Lemon Loaf

For the loaf:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 - 6 oz containers vanilla yogurt
1 cup sugar
3 large eggs
zest of 2 lemons
1 teaspoon lemon extract
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 cups blueberries
1 Tablespoon all-purpose flour

For the lemon syrup:
1/3 cup lemon juice
1 Tablespoon sugar

For the lemon glaze:
1 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 Tablespoon Karo Syrup

Preheat the oven to 350°. Grease and line a loaf pan using nonstick spray and parchment paper.

In a mixer, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, yogurt, sugar, eggs, lemon zest, lemon extract, and vegetable oil.

Gently coat the blueberries with 1 tablespoon of all- purpose flour.

Fold the blueberries into the batter with care.

Pour the batter into the loaf pan and place the pan in the preheated oven for approximately 50 - 60 minutes or until the center tests done. The loaf will be ready when you can insert a toothpick into the center, and it comes out clean. 

Prepare the lemon syrup by combining the lemon juice and sugar in a small saucepan. Heat the mixture until the sugar completely dissolves and the liquid becomes clear.

After the loaf has cooled for about 10 minutes pour the prepared lemon syrup over the loaf and allow the loaf to cool completely.

Prepare the lemon glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, lemon juice, and Karo syrup. If the glaze is too thick, it can be thinned with extra lemon juice. If the glaze is too thin, add more powdered sugar. Once the loaf has completely cooled, it can be drizzled with the lemon glaze. Allow the glaze to set then slice and serve the bread.
