Cook Time: 1 hour, 15 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 2/3 cups milk
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans

Preparation:

Grease and flour a 9x5x3-inch loaf pan; set aside.

In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. Make a well in the center and set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, combine beaten egg, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract; add to the well in dry ingredients. Stir just until batter is moistened.

Fold in lemon peel, blueberries, and chopped pecans. Spoon into prepared loaf pan. Bake at 350° for 60 to 75 minutes, until a wooden toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the center of the loaf. Cool blueberry bread in pan on a rack. For best flavor, wrap and store overnight.

Blueberry BreadJuly 27, 2009By zoey.brown
"This is one of the best blueberry quick bread recipe's that I've tasted! But I do suggest that you follow the recipe closely. The fresh grated lemon peel is a must. As it's fresh lemon flavor is a perfect combination with the blueberries. Also when it stated for best flavor, wrap and store overnight that is a must too. I waited 24 hrs. before tasting. I have to tell you it's worth the wait! Each slice is better than the last. The one thing I did add is poppy seeds. As I am a poppy seed lover, but that is optional."
