Ingredients
To make this recipe, you’ll need:
- 1 3/4 cups all purpose flour
- 1 /2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 cup honey (or agave)
- 1/4 cup 0% fat greek yogurt (I like to use Fage 0%)
- 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 3 tbsp lemon zest
- 3/4 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)`

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.

How to Store Leftovers
Leftovers should be stored in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
If you want to freeze leftovers, make sure the loaf is completely cooled and then wrap in plastic wrap and place into a freezer bag. The loaf can be frozen for up to 6 months and when you’re ready to eat, take the loaf out 24 hours before serving and defrost in the fridge.
