Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups (186g) all purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¾ cup Splenda (see note)
  • ¼ cup (59ml) vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon (15ml) lemon juice
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup (118ml) buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen, but if using frozen make sure they aren't too icy)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray an 8x4" loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and SPLENDA in a medium bowl. Set aside.
  • Stir together oil, lemon juice, eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla. Stir in dry ingredients just until mixed. Fold in blueberries.
  • Pour into prepared pan. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the loaf is browned and a toothpick comes out clean from the center. Cool at least 10 minutes before removing from pan and slicing.
  • Best served within 24 hours of making.

Notes

  • This recipe was tested using 18 packets SPLENDA sugar replacement. 18 packets = 3/4 cup sweetener. You can swap any sweetener of choice, but know it may affect the sweetness of the recipe.
  • To use real sugar, use 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar in place of the Splenda.
  • I recommend using fresh blueberries or completely thawed and drained frozen berries (make sure they're thawed and drained well).
  • Store bread wrapped well for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
