blueberry and yoghurt loaf

  • 150g unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup (220g) caster (superfine) sugar 
  • 2 eggs 
  • ½ cup (140g) Greek-style (thick) yoghurt 
  • 1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest 
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 
  • 1½ cups (225g) self-raising (self-rising) flour, sifted 
  • 125g fresh blueberries, plus extra, to serve 
  • icing (confectioner’s) sugar, for dusting
  1. Preheat oven to 160°C (325°F). Place the butter, sugar, eggs, yoghurt, lemon zest and vanilla in a bowl and whisk to combine. Add the flour and whisk until well combined. Fold through the blueberries and spoon into a lightly greased 22cm x 8cm x 7cm loaf tin lined with non-stick baking paper. 
  2. Smooth the top with a palette knife and bake for 1 hour–1 hour 10 minutes or until cooked when tested with a skewer. Allow the loaf to cool in the tin for 10 minutes before turning it out onto a wire rack to cool completely. Dust with icing sugar and top with extra blueberries to serve. Serves 6–8

Hi Naura, we haven’t tested the recipe using a round cake tin but if you do try it, note that the cooking time will change. Start off with less cooking time and check to make sure you do not over baking. Happy baking!

Can this be made in a round cake tin?
Thanks
