10 steps

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 4 tablespoons butter, room temperature
  • 1 egg
  • 2 cups flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries

  • Topping
  • 1/2 cup sugar

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  2. 2
    Grease a 9 x 5 loaf pan. (Grease very! well as there are so many blueberries that only half of the loaf may come out--it is still tasty, but not presentable!).
  3. 3
    Stir the topping ingredients together and set aside.
  4. 4
    In a medium-size bowl, cream the butter and sugar. Then mix in the egg. Mix in the milk and beat until mostly smooth.
  5. 5
    In another bowl, mix the flour with the baking powder and salt.
  6. 6
    Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients.
  7. 7
    Fold in the blueberries and the lemon zest.
  8. 8
    Pour the batter into the loaf pan and sprinkle with topping.
  9. 9
    Bake until the topping is deep golden brown and has formed a thick crust--approximately 50 minutes.
  10. 10
    Cool in pan 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to finish cooling.
