Instructions
- Heat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and line it with a parchment sling.
- Whisk 1 1/2 cups flour, the baking powder and the salt.
- In a large bowl, rub the zest of both lemons into the sugar with your fingers until fragrant. Whisk in the melted butter, eggs, yogurt, vanilla and 2 tablespoons lemon juice.
- Fold the dry ingredients into the wet just until combined. Toss the blueberries with the remaining 1 tablespoon flour and fold them in gently.
- Pour into the pan and bake 55–65 minutes, until a toothpick in the center comes out clean. Tent with foil if it browns too fast.
- Cool 15 minutes in the pan, then lift out and cool completely.
- Whisk the powdered sugar with 1 1/2–2 tablespoons lemon juice until thick. Spoon over the loaf and let it set.
Tips & make-ahead
- Frozen blueberries work. Don't thaw them, and add 5 minutes to the bake.
- Keeps 3 days at room temperature, well wrapped.
