Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1/2 cup plant-based milk (almond, soy, or oat)
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 2 tbsp lemon zest
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, combine applesauce, plant-based milk, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold in the blueberries.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Tips for the perfect loaf:
- Gently toss your blueberries in a tablespoon of flour before adding them to the batter. This will help prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the loaf.
- Don’t overmix the batter! Overmixing can result in a tough loaf.
- If the top of the loaf starts to brown too quickly, tent it with foil during the last 15-20 minutes of baking.
