This fruity Almond Blueberry Yogurt Bread has a dense yogurt laced batter loaded with sweet plump blueberries. After baking, it's topped with a sweet cream glaze. Serve it as a sweet ending to a meal, for a small bite at a special tea with friends or as a mid-morning snack.

Easy Almond Blueberry Yogurt Bread Recipe

Fruit filled quick breads like this are a regular rotation in my kitchen. Especially when sweet fresh berries are at their peak of season. This type of cake-like loaf bread is tasty warm or cold, and goes down very well with a cup of hot tea or coffee. If you're baking it in advance, I suggest making the bread, cooling and glazing it just before serving for the prettiest presentation.

How to Make the Best Almond Blueberry Yogurt Bread Recipe

Ingredients you'll need to make homemade Almond Blueberry Yogurt Bread: All purpose flour, baking powder, salt, granulated sugar, one pint fresh blueberries, Greek yogurt, large eggs, vanilla extract, alm ond extract and sliced almonds.
Kitchen gadgets you'll need: A large 9 or 10 inch loaf pan or two 8 x 4 inch pans, mixing bowls, a hand mixer or a stand mixer (optional), measuring cups and spoons, a whisk to sift together the dry ingredients, a large silicone spatula, a colander to rinse the berries.
The batter for this blueberry bread can be mixed together by hand. If you prefer, you can use a mixer to whip together the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients. Either way it works.
I bake this bread in a large deep loaf pan. It can easily make two smaller loaves dividing the batter between two 8 x 4 x 3 inch loaf pans. When doing so, the baking time will likely be shorter. Less batter in a pan will bake more quickly, so check the center for doneness around 30-35 minutes and adjust the baking time from that point.
To clean the blueberries, place them into a colander and give them a good rinse. Spread them on paper towels in a single layer and let them dry before proceeding with the recipe.
You can use sour cream in place of yogurt for the batter in the same amount.
Store Almond Blueberry Yogurt Bread in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. You can alsol freeze it for up to 2 months.

Blueberries are indigenous to North America. They're not only mouthwatering in taste and texture, but they're good for you, too. I love them so much I look for opportunities to use them in recipes.
