Servings: 10
Equipment
- 9x5 loaf pan be sure to use a full sized standard loaf pan for this bread.
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup sour cream or yogurt
- 3 Tbsp poppy seeds*
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a 9×5 loaf pan. I also line mine with a parchment paper sling for easy removal after baking, but that's optional.
- In a large mixing bowl (or in your stand mixer) beat or whisk together the 2 large eggs, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 1/2 cup sour cream or yogurt, 3 Tbsp poppy seeds*, 2 tsp vanilla extract, and 1/2 tsp cinnamon. Beat well to break up the eggs completely and get everything well combined.
- Beat in the 1 tsp baking powder, 1/2 tsp baking soda, and 1/2 tsp salt. Then with your mixer on low blend in the 2 cups all purpose flour, adding slowly.
- Fold in the 1 1/2 cups blueberries and turn into your prepared pan. Smooth out the top evenly from side to side of the pan.
- Bake for about 50 minutes or until risen and golden and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out without wet batter. Moist crumbs are fine.
- Let the loaf cool a bit before removing from the pan. Enjoy warm or at room temperature. I like to slice it nice and thick!
- Store leftovers under foil or a cake dome on the counter. The completely cooled bread can be frozen for up to 3 months.
Notes
*Be sure your poppy seeds are fresh ~ nuts and seeds can spoil over time. If you buy in bulk consider storing in the refrigerator or freezer.
