Recipe Instructions

Step 1

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

Step 2

Place blueberries, sugar, butter, and salt in a saucepan. Bring to a boil; boil for 5 minutes. Separate blueberries from sauce using a colander or strainer and set both aside.

Step 3

Combine flour, sugar, butter, and vanilla extract in a bowl for the topping. Knead with a fork until all ingredients are combined. Set aside.

Step 4

For the bread, mix 1/2 cup blueberry sauce, sugar, sour cream, eggs, and butter together in a bowl.

Step 5

Mix drained blueberries, flour, baking powder, and salt together in a separate bowl. Combine wet ingredients and dry ingredients. Pour into the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle with the topping.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour and 35 minutes. Serve with remaining blueberry sauce.
