Lemon Blueberry Yogurt Loaf Cake

 


This delightfully moist loaf cake recipe came from Dinner: A Love Story, where it is called Last-Minute Bake Sale Cake. It is indeed easy to throw together last-minute, and it makes a wonderful dessert-disguised-as-breakfast. This was the perfect way to get rid of some yogurt that was about to go bad, and I liked it so much that it was gone within a few days. We'll definitely be making this again. 

Lemon Blueberry Yogurt Loaf Cake

(Recipe from Dinner: A Love Story)

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp lemon zest
  • 3/4 cup sour cream or plain yogurt
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup blueberries (or raspberries or blackberries)

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease one standard loaf pan. 
  2. Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. 
  3. In a large bowl, mix together sugar and lemon zest until well-distributed. Add sour cream, oil, eggs, and vanilla. Whisk until combined.

  5. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cake cool completely before slicing.
