Notes

Toss the blueberries with flour to prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the loaf.
All the ingredients should be at room temperature. This will help in easier blending and will give a better texture to the bread.
Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing.
If your loaf cake is browning too much, cover it loosely with a piece of aluminum foil.
Don't overmix the batter. Mix it just until all ingredients are well blended and there are no white flour streaks visible.
If using frozen blueberries, please don't thaw them. Use them frozen.
Please use a kitchen scale to measure the ingredients. This ensures better and consistent results every time.
