Blueberry Cream Cheese Loaf Recipe

This blueberry cream cheese loaf is soft, moist, and packed with juicy blueberries. I love how the cream cheese keeps the crumb tender and rich without making the loaf heavy. It’s easy to make and perfect for breakfast or a sweet snack.

Notes

I always use full-fat cream cheese for the best texture. Frozen blueberries work just fine, just don’t thaw them first. This loaf tastes even better the next day and freezes really well if you want to save a few slices for later.
