I just love lemon flavoured baked goods! This Thermomix Brilliant Blueberry and Lemon Loaf has a good balance of lemon, sweetness from the coconut sugar and bursts of blueberries, along with a slight saltiness.

How to this Thermomix Brilliant Blueberry and Lemon Loaf

First, pre-heat the oven to 180C. You’ll need to line the base and sides of a loaf tin. Here’s a really easy way to do that. Just lay a piece of baking paper on top of your tin and cut diagonal slits into the corners. Push down to line the tin, like so:

Next, use a vegetable peeler to remove the zest from a lemon. Place this in the bowl of your thermal cooker, along with coconut sugar. Blitz.

Pour batter into the lined loaf tin. Roughly even out the mixture. It’s quite a thick batter so just do the best you can.

    Loved this recipe, very easy to make and will certainly make again. Might try as muffins next time. Thank you Bec.

  3. […] won and this little beauty was born. I’m going to say it is possibly even better than my Brilliant Blueberry Lemon Loaf and I really love that one. For the cake… 1 lime, zest and juice 100g coconut sugar 300g […]

    If you haven’t tried this recipe, you are seriously missing out!! This cooks beautifully as a loaf or in cupcakes.
    Just be warned, once you sample it you may not want to stop
    SCRUMPTIOUS!

  5. Catherine Ratcliff on March 4, 2016 at 7:09 pm

    Bec, This loaf really is divine!
    The yummiest thing I’ve had in weeks.
    Perfect balance of flavours and oh so easy to make. Thank you for sharing this recipe!

  6. Joanne Whittington on February 19, 2016 at 2:47 pm

    Yum! Afternoon tea is sorted
    I used raspberries instead of blueberries
    next time I’ll try the chia gel method

  7. Rose Clark on September 12, 2015 at 2:50 pm

    can this be converted to vegan? Not even sure how to do that, but would really like to try.

    • Thermobexta on September 12, 2015 at 4:23 pm

      The only non-vegan ingredient in it is the eggs, I’m fairly sure it will work fine replacing them with chia eggs or flax eggs 🙂

  8. Kristen on August 31, 2015 at 9:39 am

    Hi! Looks delicious! Just wondering if you think it would work with almond meal instead of flour?

    • Thermobexta on August 31, 2015 at 4:47 pm

      Probably 🙂 Would love to know how you go if you try it using almond meal!

  9. Bec Blomfield on August 25, 2015 at 4:36 pm

    Not sure what I did wrong, but I made this yesterday and it turned out tasting very baking powdery, and pretty inedible. Only substituted the coconut sugar with rapadura which I didn’t think would make a difference (?) Shame, I was really looking forward to adding another spelt flour recipe to my collection!

    • Thermobexta on October 29, 2015 at 6:25 pm

      I’m really sorry, your comment went into my spam folder for some reason! I think you should try this one again, it’s actually my favourite cake to make ever, I’m not sure what went wrong for you, but do assure you it’s a delicious piece of baking 🙂

  10. Bel on June 20, 2015 at 10:22 am

    I have been wanting go try this for ages….going to make this arvo x

    • Thermobexta on June 20, 2015 at 10:45 am
