Blueberry Bread

Try this with a good cup of coffee on Christmas morning. You'll get a great start on the big day and you'll probably be back for seconds.

INGREDIENTS
  • 1 cup fresh (or thawed frozen) blueberries
  • 1½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon flour
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2/3 cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1 heaping teaspoon baking powder
  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease and flour a 9" × 5" loaf pan.

  2. Sift the dry ingredients together (leaving aside 1 tablespoon flour).

  3. In a separate bowl, stir together the egg and milk.

  4. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Add milk mixture to the well all at once, tossing with a fork until just moistened.

  5. Toss blueberries in 1 tablespoon flour. Add blueberries to batter.

  6. Spoon batter into prepared pan.

  7. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, approximately 30 minutes.

  8. Transfer to wire rack; let cool.
