  • Total Time: 75 minutes
  • Yield: 1 loaf

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
  • Zest of 2 lemons
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan and line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, combine Greek yogurt, sugar, and eggs. Beat until smooth. Add vegetable oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract, mixing until incorporated.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
  5. Fold in blueberries gently, being careful not to overmix.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
  • For longer storage, wrap tightly in plastic wrap and freeze for up to 2 months.
  • Add a dusting of powdered sugar or a light lemon glaze for extra flavor.
