Nova Scotia is renowned for its blueberries and I love all things blueberry as does my family. That includes muffins, cakes, crisps, and fresh blueberries with cream! They are all delicious! I wrote this recipe to take on a camping trip. This recipe makes 2 loaves and will transport and keep nicely for a couple days, if they last that long!
Lemon Blueberry Cream Cheese Loaf
In a large mixing bowl, cream together:
- 3/4 cup softened butter
- 1 pkg room temperature cream cheese (250g)
- 1 and 3/4 cups sugar
Then add in:
- 1 cup plain unsweetened yogurt (equal to 4 eggs)
- Zest and juice of 2 lemons (about 1/3 cup)
Then add in sifted dry ingredients:
- 4 cups flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 3/4 tsp baking soda
- 3/4 tsp salt
Mix until combined and then add in:
- 1/4 cup milk
After the batter is just mixed, fold in:
- 3 cups blueberries, dusted with flour
Bake at 350 degrees F for approximately 70 minutes, in two parchment lined loaf pans. This makes 2 large loaves.
