Easy Peach Blueberry Loaf
This delicious peach blueberry loaf is incredibly easy to make and a fantastic way to enjoy a sweet treat without any refined sugar. The base of the loaf is made with simple ingredients like flour, Greek yogurt, and maple syrup.
What really sets this loaf apart is its incredibly moist and tender texture, thanks to the addition of Greek yogurt. Yogurt replaces the need for excess oil but also gives the loaf a cake-like crumb that melts in your mouth.
To top it all off, a bright and zesty lemon icing is drizzled over the cooled loaf. Made with just a little lemon juice and powdered sugar, it adds a tangy contrast to the sweet fruit.

Made it exactly as instructed (with exception that I added juice of a full lemon) and loved it.
Can I use frozen blueberries and if so does that change baking time? Thanks!
It was delicious but it fell when I took it out of the oven. I didn’t sift the flour is that why?
Hi Gerry, maybe your leavening agent is expired? That’s happened to me so many times before.
Came out perfect, although I baked it in a larger loaf pan 11 x 6 which actually turned out perfect. Could not locate my 9 x 5 pan. Used organic whole milk greek yogurt and organic blueberries. Extra virgin olive oil; an expensive one, organic unbleached all purpose flour. The icing was crucial and I spread it all over the top after it cooled down. Using better ingredients leveled up the end result imho.
