Adapted ever so slightly from Jessie Sheehan's wonderful Snackable Bakes. Changes I've made: Used blueberries in place of the blackberries. If you want to use blackberries, roughly chop them before adding them to the batter. Upped the vanilla to 1 teaspoon vanilla from 3/4 teaspoon. Used extra-virgin olive oil in place of the vegetable oil. Upped the kosher salt to 1/2 teaspoon from 1/4 teaspoon. Used sour cream in place of the yogurt: I've made this twice with yogurt and once with sour cream, and while all were delicious, I think the sour cream version may have been the best. Not sure I would be able to detect a difference in a blind taste test, but just noting this to say both ingredients work great. I use this 8.5 x 4.5-inch loaf pan for this recipe.
