Here’s a Blueberry Cream Cheese Loaf — moist, tender, and swirled with creamy cheesecake filling 🍇🧀🍞
🫐 Blueberry Cream Cheese Loaf
Ingredients
For the loaf
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
For the cream cheese swirl
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease and flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
- Make cream cheese filling
- Beat cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Set aside.
- Mix dry ingredients
- Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.
- Mix wet ingredients
- Beat butter and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, then vanilla and sour cream.
- Combine
- Gently fold dry ingredients into wet mixture until just combined.
- Fold in blueberries carefully to prevent streaking the batter.
- Assemble loaf
- Pour half the batter into the loaf pan.
- Dollop cream cheese mixture on top.
- Top with remaining batter and swirl lightly with a knife.
- Bake
- Bake 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean (avoid cream cheese swirl).
- If top browns too quickly, cover loosely with foil.
- Cool & serve
- Cool 15 minutes in pan, then remove to a wire rack.
- Slice and enjoy!
Tips
- Toss blueberries in a little flour before folding to prevent sinking.
- Can use frozen blueberries; do not thaw to avoid excess moisture.
- Optional: drizzle with a simple powdered sugar glaze for extra sweetness.
If you want, I can also give a mini loaf version, muffin version, or keto-friendly blueberry cream cheese loaf.
