Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9x 5" loaf pan with parchment paper, or lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray.

Step 2

Whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt, in a medium bowl, and set aside.

Step 3

In the bowl of an electric mixer, blend the melted butter, sugar, vanilla, eggs, lemon zest and lemon juice.  Mix until combined.

Step 4

With mixer on low speed, alternate adding flour mixture and milk a little at a time.  Continue mixing until just combined, being careful not to over mix.

Step 5

Gently fold the blueberries into the batter.

Step 6

Pour the batter into prepared pan and bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean.

Step 7

Cool bread in the pan for about 15 minutes, then move to a serving platter.

Step 8

Prepare the glaze by whisking together the melted butter, powdered sugar, lemon juice and vanilla. Slowly add additional lemon juice a teaspoon at a time if glaze is not pourable.

Step 9

Pour glaze over the still warm loaf and allow it to soak in before serving.
