Cooking Notes
. Room Temperature Ingredients: For the best results, make sure all your ingredients (like butter, eggs, and milk) are at room temperature before mixing. This helps create a smoother batter and even bake.
. Flour-Coated Blueberries: Tossing the blueberries in flour helps them stay suspended in the batter rather than sinking to the bottom during baking.
. Cooling Time: Make sure the loaf is completely cool before adding the glaze to prevent it from melting and soaking into the loaf.
Variations
. Lemon Raspberry Loaf: Substitute blueberries with fresh or frozen raspberries for a delicious twist.
. Lemon Poppy Seed Blueberry Loaf: Add 1 tablespoon of poppy seeds to the batter for a lemon poppy seed version with blueberries.
. Cream Cheese Glaze: For a richer glaze, replace the lemon glaze with a cream cheese glaze made by mixing softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and a bit of lemon juice.
