This Blueberry Lemon Bread is not only super moist and scrumptious, it’s healthy! It’s a perfect way to satisfy your sweet tooth.
I don’t usually have a sweet tooth but yesterday I had a big ole craving for something sweet. And it would not leave! So at 7:30 last night I decided to bake this blueberry lemon bread. It’s been on my list of recipes to try and with fresh blueberries in the refrigerator (for once), I jumped on it.
Blueberry Lemon Bread
It is incredibly scrumptious! Plus, I forgot to mention, it’s healthy too! Doubly happy 🙂 It’s actually even Paleo too. I love how unbelievably moist things I bake with almond meal flour come out.
I did add a little glaze on mine this time, which “un-healthified” it a tad. I probably won’t do this often. But to be completely honest, it made the pictures so much prettier with it on! 🙂

These are delicious and easy to make….. I always have all the ingredients on hand. For the glaze… I mixed lemon juice with icing sugar to make it extra lemony, and it turned out amazing!
Shaz says
Is the nutrition based on the whole loaf or of one slice?
Sherri says
It is for one slice (of 10 equally divided slices) 🙂

Second time ever making this tonight. I really enjoyed it the first time. But this time I added more juice & zested the lemon. However, I cant seem to stop it from collapsing!! Its driving me nuts! Any tips on how to prevent this?!
Thanks!
Maddie says
This was AMAZING!! I have IBS and struggle to find yummy desserts and treats I can eat and this was perfect. My entire family ate it all too and can’t stop talking about it. Highly recommend. The only thing I changed was a little more lemon!
Sherri says
I am SO happy you loved it!!
CToth says
Just made this yummy recipe into muffins and baked them for 20 mins. They turned out beautifully. I doubled the blueberries which resulted in a blue muffin, but it tasted wonderful. Very moist. Oh and I added a little lemon zest.
Thank you for a great recipe.
Sherri says
I’m so happy to hear you enjoyed them. 🙂 I should try the muffins too!

Going in the oven!
Stacy says
I ABSOLUTELY love this bread!!!! I made it for the first time last year and simply fell in love!!!! I am about to make another batch right now.
I even tried it with fresh cranberries, delicious!
Thank you sooooo much…I can’t wait to try your other recipes!
Sherri says
I’m so happy to hear you love it as much as we do! Thanks for letting me know 🙂
Stacy says
Have you or anyone here tried making this with stevia or xylitol? If so, how did it turn out? Do I need to add more water to make up for the liquid I would get from the syrup?
Chad says
This bread looked so tasty that I went out and got the ingredients and made it the same day. My kids, both of whom are very picky, absolutely loved it!
Thanks!!!!
Sherri says
I’m so glad it was a hit! 🙂

Hi! My family loves this recipe, I have made it several times. Only thing is I have to bake it for at least 45 minutes or an hour. Ovens are different, I guess that’s why. But it’s super easy to make and is our favourite way to use fresh blueberries.
Melissa says
The measurements are listed differently in the above recipe. Up top in the article the almond flour is listed as 1 1/2 cups. Lower on the page where the recipe is listed again, the almond flour is listed as 1/2 cup. FYI. I used the 1.5 cups and the bread was perfect and delicious!
Sherri says
It is 1 1/2 cups! I guess when I copied the recipe for the print format, I accidentally didn’t grab the extra “1” Oy! Thank you for letting me know. I’m so happy to hear you liked it! 🙂
Chelsea says
I can’t speak for the original recipe, because I whipped the egg whites first and added the zest of the lemon as well. What came out of the oven is absolute heaven! I’m sure the original recipe is just as delicious, I just wanted to ensure a light fluffy loaf with a great lemon flavor.
Sherri says
I am so glad you loved it! Thanks so much for letting us know! 🙂
