Preparation

Baking

  2. Let the loaf cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack.
  3. Slice and enjoy your Blueberry Cream Cheese Bread!

Notes

For optimal flavor, use fresh blueberries. If using frozen, do not thaw. You can add lemon zest or cinnamon for an extra twist. Keep an eye on doneness, covering with foil if browning too quickly.
