Blueberries galore! I’m in love with the fresh blueberries right now. And to me – blueberry bread and blueberry muffins may be one of the best ways to enjoy the sweet fruits. They have such a rich flavor that means your bread recipes need very little sweeteners. When I adapted a zucchini bread recipe for a whole-wheat w/blueberry version I more than halved the amount of sugar and used a healthier version of raw sugar. I’d like to retry the recipe next time with coconut sugar.
Anyway – here are 9 amazing blueberry bread and muffin recipes – many of them healthier than your average dessert bread. Enjoy these amazing contributions from some of my favorite food bloggers around my various networks.
