Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 2 units Large eggs
• 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cups Whole milk
• 1.5 cups Fresh blackberries
• 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour (for coating blackberries)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy using a hand mixer or stand mixer.

Step 4

Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three additions, alternating with the milk, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

In a small bowl, toss the blackberries with 1 tablespoon of flour to prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the bread during baking.

Step 7

Gently fold the blackberries into the batter using a spatula, being careful not to crush them.

Step 8

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.

Step 9

Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top browns too quickly, cover the bread loosely with aluminum foil during the last 15 minutes of baking.

Step 10

Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Slice and serve. Enjoy your homemade blackberry bread!
