Table of Contents

This moist, citrusy, and slightly sweet blueberry lemon bread is easy to make in the air fryer—perfect for breakfast, snacks, or dessert!

Ingredients:

For the Bread:

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

1 tsp baking powder

½ tsp baking soda

¼ tsp salt

½ cup unsalted butter, softened

¾ cup sugar

2 eggs

½ cup Greek yogurt (or sour cream)

2 tbsp lemon juice

1 tbsp lemon zest

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (tossed in 1 tbsp flour)

For the Lemon Glaze:

½ cup powdered sugar

1-2 tbsp lemon juice

Instructions:

Preheat Air Fryer to 320°F (160°C).

Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Cream Butter & Sugar: In another bowl, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, yogurt, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla. Mix well.

Combine Wet & Dry: Gradually mix dry ingredients into wet until just combined. Do not overmix.

Fold in Blueberries: Gently fold in floured blueberries.

Prepare Loaf Pan: Grease a small loaf pan (one that fits in the air fryer). Pour in the batter.

Air Fry: Bake at 320°F for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Cool & Glaze: Let cool for 10 minutes, then whisk powdered sugar and lemon juice to make the glaze. Drizzle over the bread.

Tips & Tricks:

Toss Blueberries in Flour – This prevents them from sinking to the bottom.
No Loaf Pan? – Use silicone molds or mini loaf pans that fit your air fryer.
Want More Moisture? – Substitute some sugar with honey or applesauce for extra softness.

Make It Healthier – Swap half the flour for whole wheat and use coconut sugar or maple syrup instead of white sugar.
Extra Crunch? – Add a streusel topping with brown sugar, butter, and flour before baking.
