This moist and tender quick bread owes its velvety texture to creamy softened cream cheese, with fresh blueberries adding bright pops of flavor in every slice.
| Ingredient | Amount |
|---|---|
| Fresh blueberries | 1 cup |
| All-purpose flour | 1½ cups |
| Granulated sugar | ½ cup |
| Brown sugar | ¼ cup |
| Salt | ½ tsp |
| Baking powder | ½ tsp |
| Baking soda | ¼ tsp |
| Unsalted butter, softened | ½ cup |
| Cream cheese, softened | 4 oz |
| Large eggs | 2 |
| Vanilla extract | 1 tsp |
| Milk | ½ cup |
1. Preheat and Prepare:
Set the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan. Toss the blueberries with 1 tablespoon of flour to help keep them suspended in the batter.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a large bowl, whisk together the remaining flour, both sugars, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
3. Blend Wet Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, beat the butter and cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
4. Combine Mixtures:
Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture in batches, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the dry mixture, stirring just until incorporated.
5. Add Blueberries:
Fold the flour-coated blueberries gently into the batter. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared loaf pan.
6. Bake and Cool:
Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before moving it to a wire rack to finish cooling.
