For the Glaze

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan and set aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, sugar, lemon juice, and eggs. Whisk until smooth.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture, alternating with the milk. Stir until just combined.
4. Fold in the grated lemon zest, walnuts (if using), and blueberries.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
6. Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. While the loaf is cooling, prepare the glaze by mixing the lemon juice, melted butter, and confectioners’ sugar until smooth.
8. Once the loaf has cooled slightly, drizzle the glaze over the top.
