Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, beat butter, eggs, sour cream, and vanilla until smooth.
  4. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet, mixing just until combined. Fold in blueberries.
  5. In a small bowl, mix cream cheese with a little sugar if desired.
  6. Pour half the batter into the loaf pan, spread cream cheese mixture, then top with remaining batter.

Notes

  • Ensure butter and cream cheese are softened for easier mixing.
  • Fresh blueberries work best for vibrant color and flavor.
  • You can substitute with frozen blueberries, but fold them gently to prevent color bleeding.
