Blue Ribbon Recipe

Wow, this quick bread is bursting with fresh blueberries. The moist bread is similar to a blueberry loaf cake. It's so tender that our slice broke apart when we tried it. Perfect for breakfast or a snack. We suggest hiding this from your family if you want some. If you don't, they may eat the entire loaf themselves.
