Ingredients
  

For the Bread
  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened Use low-fat cream cheese for a lighter option.
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup sugar Regular or coconut sugar can be used.
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Adds depth to the flavor.
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries Gently folded into the batter.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese and butter until creamy. Add the sugar and beat until fluffy, about 4 minutes.
  3. Incorporate the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until well-combined.
  5. Gently fold in the fresh blueberries.
  6. Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan generously and pour the batter into the pan, leveling it off with a spatula.
Baking
  1. Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes. Check for doneness using a toothpick—it should come out clean.
  2. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  3. Once cooled, slice and serve.

Notes

For best results, do not overmix the batter once the flour is added. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat in the oven at 350°F for 10-15 minutes when ready to enjoy.
