One of my neighbors brought me some fresh blueberries from eastern North Carolina last week so I tried this recipe for Blueberry Orange Bread. This is really yummy and so easy. Make several loaves and keep some in your freezer for unexpected guests.
BLUEBERRY-ORANGE BREAD(Serves 12)
2 tablespoons butter ¼ cup boiling water ½ cup orange juice 1 tablespoon grated orange rind 1 large egg 1 cup sugar 2 cups flour 1 teaspoon baking powder ¼ teaspoon salt ½ teaspoon baking soda 1 ¼ cup fresh blueberries Melt butter in boiling water; add orange juice and rind. Beat egg and sugar together and mix with the orange mixture. Add dry ingredients and mix gently. Fold in the blueberries. Pour into a greased and floured load pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 60-70 minutes. (It only took 60 minutes in my oven.) May freeze. |
