Zesty Lemon Blueberry Bread with Citrus Glaze

Ingredients:

1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (if using frozen, do not thaw)

For the Glaze:

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon lemon zest

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Stir in the Greek yogurt, lemon zest, and lemon juice until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Gently fold in the blueberries until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
For the Glaze:

In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, fresh lemon juice, and lemon zest until smooth.
Drizzle the glaze over the cooled bread, allowing it to drip down the sides
