Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup granulated sugar or coconut sugar
1/3 cup neutral oil (such as canola or light olive oil)
1/2 cup plant-based milk (like almond or soy)
1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
1 tbsp flour (for coating the blueberries)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
- In a separate bowl, mix the oil, plant-based milk, applesauce, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Toss the blueberries in 1 tablespoon of flour, then gently fold them into the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Use fresh or frozen blueberries; no need to thaw frozen ones.
Coating blueberries in flour helps prevent them from sinking.
Make it gluten-free with a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend.
Substitute applesauce with mashed banana or non-dairy yogurt if needed.
Store at room temperature for 2 days or refrigerate up to 5 days. Freeze for longer storage.
