1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups fresh blueberries (tossed in 1 tablespoon flour)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350 Fahrenheit and grease two 9×5 loaf pans.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, cream cheese, and sugar until fluffy.

4. Slowly stir in the flour, baking powder, and salt until just combined.
5. Carefully fold in the fresh blueberries by hand.

Notes
Ensure butter and cream cheese are truly room temperature to avoid lumps.
Toss blueberries in flour to prevent them from sinking to the bottom.
Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature or 7 days in the fridge.
