Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- Grate the zest from the lemon onto a small plate. Cut the lemon in half, and squeeze the juice from both halves. Make a topping by whisking together 1 teaspoon of the lemon zest, 1 tablespoon of the lemon juice, and the confectioners' sugar in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Whisk together the white sugar, melted butter, eggs, sour cream, the remaining lemon zest, and the remaining lemon juice in a large bowl until evenly blended. Stir in the milk; set aside.
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate large bowl. Remove 3 tablespoons of the flour mixture and set aside. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture; pour the milk mixture into the well and stir the batter just until combined.
- Fold the frozen blueberries into the reserved 3 tablespoons of the flour mixture, then fold the blueberries into the batter. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 60 minutes.
- Remove from oven; immediately poke holes all over the top of the loaf with a toothpick, and pour the topping evenly over the loaf. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.

GLAZED LEMON-BLUEBERRY LOAF
With a name like Glazed Lemon-Blueberry Loaf, you know you're in for a treat. Tangy and sweet, thanks to the fresh blueberries and lemon juice, the secret to this recipe is stirring sour cream (or plain yogurt) into the batter for an ultra-moist crumb! And because this is lemon-blueberry bread, we couldn't resist upping the flavor with a lemon-extract and powdered sugar glaze on top-don't skip it, really! True lemon lovers might want to add an garnish of fresh zest for an extra pop of citrus.

LEMON-BLUEBERRY YOGURT LOAF
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8 1/2 by 4 1/4 by 2 1/2-inch loaf pan. Line the bottom with parchment paper. Grease and flour the pan. Sift together 1 1/2 cups flour, baking powder, and salt into 1 bowl. In another bowl, whisk together the yogurt, 1 cup sugar, the eggs, lemon zest, vanilla and oil. Slowly whisk the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Mix the blueberries with the remaining tablespoon of flour, and fold them very gently into the batter. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for about 50 (+) minutes, or until a cake tester placed in the center of the loaf comes out clean. Meanwhile, cook the 1/3 cup lemon juice and remaining 1 tablespoon sugar in a small pan until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is clear. Set aside. When the cake is done, allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before flipping out onto a cooling rack. Carefully place on a baking rack over a sheet pan. While the cake is still warm, pour the lemon-sugar mixture over the cake and allow it to soak in (a pastry brush works great for this, as does using a toothpick to make tiny holes that draw the syrup in better). Cool.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350ºF (160ºC). Line an 8.5" x 4.5" (1.5 L) loaf pan with parchment paper.
- Streusel Topping: In bowl, combine granulated and brown sugars and flour. Cut in butter until mixture is very crumbly; set aside.
- Using electric mixer, cream butter and sugar together. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition, then vanilla. Combine flour, baking powder, salt and lemon rind. Using wooden spoon, alternately stir dry ingredients and milk into butter mixture, making three additions of dry and two of milk. Gently fold in blueberries. Transfer to prepared pan. Sprinkle with streusel.
- Bake in centre of preheated oven for 70 to 75 minutes or until topping is golden and cake tester inserted in centre comes out clean.
- Tips:.
- If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw. Toss gently with 1 tbsp (15 mL) all purpose flour before folding into batter, to prevent the blueberries from "bleeding".
- The streusel doubles and triples well. Use on top of muffins, open-faced pies and other quick breads.
Tips:
- Use fresh or frozen blueberries: Fresh blueberries are ideal for this loaf, but frozen blueberries can also be used. If using frozen blueberries, thaw them before adding them to the batter.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the loaf tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
- Bake the loaf until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that the loaf is cooked through.
- Let the loaf cool before slicing: This will help to prevent the loaf from crumbling.
- Serve the loaf with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream: This will make the loaf even more delicious.

This blueberry lemon loaf is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. It is moist, flavorful, and has a perfect balance of sweetness and tartness.
