Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
  • 2 oz unsalted butter, softened (about 4 tablespoons)
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup Greek yoghurt (full-fat)
Add-ins
  • 1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar until light and slightly fluffy—about 2–3 minutes with a hand mixer.
  4. Add the vanilla extract and the egg to the butter-sugar mixture. Mix until fully incorporated.
  5. Add about one-third of the dry mixture to the wet, then half the Greek yogurt. Repeat: another third of dry, the remaining yogurt, then finish with the last of the dry. Mix just until combined—do not overmix.
  6. Fold in the blueberries gently with a spatula so they don’t break.
Baking
  1. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  2. Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs. If the top browns too quickly, tent with foil for the last 10–15 minutes.
  3. Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
