• 1 cup fresh blueberries, or more to taste
• 2.5 tablespoons all-purpose flour

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a 9x5-inch loaf pan.

Step 2

Combine flour and baking powder in a medium bowl and set aside.

Step 3

Combine sugar and butter in a small bowl; mix for about 1 minute. Add eggs and mix well; add buttermilk and vanilla extract, mixing until well incorporated. Pour over the dry ingredients and mix until incorporated. Fold in blueberries with a rubber spatula. Pour batter into the prepared bread pan.

Step 4

Mix sugar, flour, and butter together in a bowl with your fingers until the butter is mixed in well with the flour and sugar. Sprinkle the topping over the batter.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 55 to 60 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes. Run a knife around the edges and remove the loaf from the pan and let cool completely on a wire rack.
