Today’s recipe is something I know you are going to love – a Blueberries and Cream Quick Bread that is bursting with sweet blueberries and a drizzle of vanilla cream glaze.
I absolutely love whipping up a quick bread for brunch – it’s easy to make and no need for me to face my irrational fear of all things yeast breads and the “OMG will it rise” conundrum. One day I’ll face that baking bread from scratch fear – just not now. I love that a quick bread comes together somewhat fast and for something that inspires me to turn on the oven in this summer heatwave, you know it has to be a recipe that is so worth me braving the heat (and the AC bills).
With the abundance of fresh sweet blueberries everywhere, I figured I would play on a variation of my favorite Strawberries and Cream Bread and go with more of a blueberries and citrus feel. This Blueberries and Cream Quick Bread trumped my adoration of all things blueberry toasties as a child. This quick bread toasted was beyond scrumptious for a quick bite to start the day, fabulous with some iced coffee in the afternoon and amazing for dessert with a bit of whipped cream and, if you are feeling so inclined, a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream.
If you show up at your neighbor’s house with a loaf of this quick bread and some coffee, you will probably be voted “Best Neighbor Ever”. Make this for bake sales or family functions and watch it fly off the table. This is the perfect bite for a weekend brunch or “just because”. For the end of summer, you might want to bookmark this recipe to use up the last of those gorgeous summer berries and, if you are feeling nice, share it with your co-workers.
While the Jersey blueberries are everywhere, I’ll be making a few batches of this Blueberries and Cream Quick Bread to stash in the freezer for those cold chilly days when some summer sunshine is needed. Sharing then, of course, is optional.
On to the recipe:
Gather your ingredients
Resist the urge to channel your inner Nigella
Dust the blueberries with a touch of flour
Let’s make some glaze
Doesn’t this look glorious?
Shall I pass you a slice?
