Blueberry Loaf Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Sift 2 1/2 cups flour, 1 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl. Add milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract; mix into a semi-thick batter.
• Toss blueberries with about 2 teaspoons flour in a separate bowl; fold into batter. Pour batter into prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cake is lightly browned, 25 to 30 minutes. Brush melted butter on top of cake and sprinkle with about 2 tablespoons sugar. Continue to bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 5 to 10 more minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a loaf pan.
• Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Stir milk, oil, egg, and vanilla extract into flour mixture until batter is just blended. Gently fold blueberries into batter; pour into prepared loaf pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 60 to 70 minutes.

Steps:

• For the cake:
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and flour a 9-inch round baking pan.
• For the streusel:
• Combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a bowl. Stir in the melted butter and then the flour. Mix well and set aside.
• For the cake:
• Cream the butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment on high speed for 4 to 5 minutes, until light. Reduce the speed to low and add the eggs 1 at a time, then add the vanilla, lemon zest, and sour cream. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. With the mixer on low speed, add the flour mixture to the batter until just combined. Fold in the blueberries and stir with a spatula to be sure the batter is completely mixed.
• Spoon the batter into the prepared pan and spread it out with a knife. With your fingers,
• crumble the topping evenly over the batter. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, until a cake tester comes out clean. Cool completely and serve sprinkled with confectioners' sugar.

Steps:

• Make the streusel: In a medium bowl, stir the flour, oats, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon and salt together to combine. Add the cubed butter and toss until each cube is fully coated in flour.
• Cut the butter into the flour mixture with your hands or a pastry cutter until the mixture forms large clumps. Refrigerate while you make the batter.
• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Lightly grease a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with nonstick spray.
• Make the cake: In a medium bowl, toss the blueberries with 1/4 cup/30 grams all-purpose flour. In another medium bowl, whisk the remaining 2 cups/260 grams flour with the baking powder, baking soda and salt to combine.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter, oil, granulated sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the egg, and mix well to combine. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, then add the vanilla and mix to combine.
• Add half of the flour mixture, then mix on low speed to combine. With the mixer still running, add the buttermilk in a slow, steady stream and mix until fully combined. Add the remaining flour mixture and mix until just combined.
• Remove the bowl from the mixer and, using a silicone spatula, fold in the blueberries (and any remaining flour in the bowl with them) by hand until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
• Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan and spread it into an even layer. Crumble half of the streusel on top in an even layer. Pour the remaining batter into the loaf pan, spread into an even layer and crumble the remaining streusel on top. The loaf pan will be just over 3/4 full. Place it on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Transfer the loaf to the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the bread has risen about 1/2 inch above the edge of the loaf pan. Lower the temperature to 325 degrees and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 45 to 55 minutes, tenting the loaf with foil if it's browning too quickly.
• Set the cake on a wire rack and let cool in the pan for 15 to 20 minutes, then run an offset spatula around the outside edge and gently unmold the cake onto a wire rack. Cool completely before slicing and serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Grease a 2lb loaf tin and line with a long strip of baking parchment. Put 100g yogurt, 2 tbsp lemon curd, the softened butter, eggs, lemon zest, flour and caster sugar into a large mixing bowl. Quickly mix with an electric whisk until the batter just comes together. Scrape half into the prepared tin. Weigh 85g blueberries from the punnet and sprinkle half into the tin, scrape the rest of the batter on top, then scatter the other half of the 85g berries on top. Bake for 1 hr 10 mins-1 hr 15 mins until golden, and a skewer poked into the centre comes out clean.
• Cool in the tin, then carefully lift onto a serving plate to ice. Sift the icing sugar into a bowl and stir in enough lemon juice to make a thick, smooth icing. Spread over the top of the cake, then decorate with lemon zest and edible flowers, if you like. Serve in slices with extra lemon curd, Greek yogurt and blueberries.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C Fan oven. Grease a 900g/2lb loaf tin then line the base and ends with grease proof paper.
• Put the butter, sugar, flour, eggs and vanilla extract into a large bowl and beat with an electric hand mixer for 5 minutes until pale and creamy - the mixture will be very thick.
• Spread one-quarter of the mix into the tin, then scatter over a third of the fruit.
• Carefully dot and spread another quarter of the cake mix on top, and scatter with another third of the fruit, repeat this step.
• Finally dot the rest of the cake mix over and gently spread with the back of a spoon.
• Bake for 1 hour until an inserted skewer comes out clean, then leave to cool.
• Mix the icing sugar and soft cheese to make the frosting then smooth onto the top of the cake. I normally start with 100g of soft cheese and add as much icing sugar as I think it needs.
