How to Make Blueberry Cream Cheese Loaf
1. Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients
In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. Prepare the Batter
In another bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, then mix in sour cream and vanilla extract.
4. Combine
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Gently fold in the blueberries.
5. Make the Cream Cheese Filling
In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, egg, and vanilla until smooth.
6. Assemble the Loaf
Pour half of the batter into the loaf pan. Add the cream cheese mixture, then top with the remaining batter. Swirl lightly with a knife.
7. Bake
Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
8. Cool and Serve
Allow the loaf to cool before slicing to let the cream cheese layer set properly.
