Time 1h40m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for greasing the pan
1 cup fresh blueberries
1 1/2 cups plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 lemon, zested and juiced (about 3 tablespoons of each)
1 teaspoon baking powder
Kosher salt
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1 lemon, juiced
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 4-by-8-by-2-inch loaf pan.
  • Toss the blueberries in 2 tablespoons of the flour in a medium bowl and set aside.
  • Beat together the butter, granulated sugar, eggs, lemon zest and lemon juice in the bowl of an electric mixer. Sift together the baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt and remaining 1 1/2 cups flour in a medium bowl. Add the flour mixture and milk to the butter mixture in alternating batches, beginning and ending with the flour. Fold in the pecans and blueberries.
