Ingredients

1 cup butter (softened, unsalted)
8 oz cream cheese (softened)
3/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 large eggs
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups fresh blueberries (tossed in 1 tablespoon of flour)

Instructions

Preheat and Prepare Pans:
Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease two 9×5-inch loaf pans and set aside.
Cream Wet Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric hand mixer to cream together the butter, cream cheese, and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add Flavorings and Eggs:
Mix in the vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time, until fully incorporated.
Combine Dry Ingredients:
Gradually add the flour, baking powder, and salt to the wet mixture. Mix just until combined—avoid overmixing.
Fold in Blueberries:
Gently fold in the blueberries coated in flour. This helps prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the bread.
Pour Batter into Pans:
Evenly distribute the thick batter between the prepared loaf pans.
Bake:
Place the pans in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 50 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean.
Cool and Serve:
Remove the loaves from the oven and let them cool slightly before taking them out of the pans. Slice and enjoy warm or at room temperature!

Tips for Success

Room Temperature Ingredients: Ensure butter, cream cheese, and eggs are at room temperature for smoother mixing.
Flour-Coated Blueberries: Tossing blueberries in flour keeps them evenly distributed in the batter.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the fridge for up to a week.
