Blueberry Season
Hope you had as nice a 4th of July as we did.
Thanks, Pat and David, for the great picnic.
I’m always glad to see the blueberries at the grocery store and in season. We eat them year round on our cereal. We freeze about 40 pints, and I make blueberry jam. A lot of work, but ever so good. We also try to make a few favorite recipes with the fresh blueberries.
Here’s a recipe to try if you become inspired: (I’ve made it, and it is really good)
Blueberry Quick Bread
2 large eggs
3/4 cup sugar
1 cup milk
3 tablespoons oil
3 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 cup blueberries
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Beat eggs and sugar together. Add milk and oil. Mix
Sift together dry ingredients and combine with other mixture stirring only until blended. Fold in blueberries and nuts.
Pour into 2 greased loaf pan Bake at 350 degrees 60 minutes. Cool about 15 minutes, and remove from pans.
Enjoy
