Blueberry Cream Cheese Loaf 🍇🍰✨

A moist, buttery loaf swirled with tangy cream cheese filling and bursting with juicy blueberries—a slice of heaven in every bite.

Ingredients 🛒

For the Loaf:

• 1½ cups (190 g) all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• ½ tsp baking soda
• ¼ tsp salt
• ½ cup (115 g) unsalted butter, softened
• 8 oz (225 g) cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• ½ cup (120 g) sour cream or full-fat yogurt
• 1½ cups fresh or frozen blueberries

For the Cream Cheese Filling:

• 8 oz (225 g) cream cheese, softened
• ¼ cup (50 g) powdered sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions 👩‍🍳

1. Preheat oven: Set oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
2. Prepare filling: Beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Set aside.
3. Make batter: Cream butter, cream cheese, and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, then vanilla. Mix in sour cream. Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; fold into wet mixture until just combined. Gently fold in blueberries.
4. Layer: Spread half the batter into the loaf pan. Add cream cheese filling in the center. Top with remaining batter, smoothing evenly.
5. Bake: Bake 50–60 minutes until golden and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool completely before slicing.
6. Serve: Slice into thick pieces and enjoy.

Tips 🌟

• Extra flavor: Add lemon zest to the batter for brightness.
• Variation: Try with raspberries or blackberries instead of blueberries.
• Serving idea: Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with glaze.
