This Blueberry Cream Cheese Loaf is the perfect marriage of tender vanilla cake and tangy cream cheese, ribboned with juicy bursts of fresh blueberries. The result? A beautifully marbled, ultra-moist loaf that’s elegant enough for brunch but simple enough for a weeknight treat.
No mixer needed—just one bowl, a swirl, and 60 minutes to golden, fruity perfection.
