Ingredients
To make this recipe, you'll need:
- 1 ¾ cups all purpose flour
- 1 /2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ cup honey (or agave)
- ¼ cup 0% fat greek yogurt (I like to use Fage 0%)
- ¼ cup unsweetened applesauce
- 2 eggs
- ¼ cup lemon juice
- 3 tablespoon lemon zest
- ¾ cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)`
Equipment
You'll need:
- Loaf Pan
- Non Stick Cooking Spray
How to Make Lemon Blueberry Bread
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a loaf pan with non stick cooking spray and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine the flour, salt, and baking powder until well combined.
- In a separate large bowl, mix together the honey (or agave), greek yogurt, applesauce, eggs, and lemon juice. Once the wet ingredients are mixed, slowly add in the dry ingredients until a batter forms.
- In a small bowl, toss the blueberries in a little flour (this will help them from sinking to the bottom of the loaf). Mix the flour coated blueberries and lemon zest into the batter until well mixed.
- Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan evenly and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick can come out clean. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving.
