Blueberry bread

Enjoy flavours of summer any season with this easy to make beautiful blueberry bread.

As we are going through what has to be our 5th major storm of the winter I am thinking back to the sunny days of summer.

I have watched a snowdrift creep up the fence throughout the day, spring can not arrive early enough.

And somewhere out there buried under the snow are 4 blueberry bushes, hibernating under their thick white blanket.

This past summer I was fortunate enough to harvest enough berries to make a few loaves of blueberry bread.

Nothing fancy, a simple berry filled quick bread to feature the best of the season!
