Good Morning Blueberry Breakfast Bread Recipe

Name: Good Morning Blueberry Breakfast Bread
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1-1/2 Tablespoon Cinnamon, Divided Use; 1-1/3 cup Sugar, Divided; 2 cups Flour; 1 teaspoon Baking Soda; 1 teaspoon Salt; 1/2 teaspoons Ground Nutmeg; 2 whole Eggs; 2/3 cups Canola Oil; 1-1/2 teaspoon Lemon Extract; 1 pint Blueberries; 1 cup Chopped Nuts (optional)

Servings: persons

1
Preheat oven to 350F with rack positioned so the top will be in the middle of the oven.
2
Combine 1/2 Tablespoon cinnamon and 1/3 cup sugar in bowl. Grease a loaf pan and sprinkle some of the mix on the bottom (plus sides if using a nonstick pan) of the pan, reserving leftover for top of loaf.
3
Whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, remaining cinnamon and sugar in a large mixing bowl. Make a well in the center.
4
In a smaller bowl blend together eggs, oil** and lemon extract* very well. Pour the wet mixture into the well made in dry ingredients and stir until batter is JUST moistened (it's alright if everything isn't completely incorporated for now, avoid over-mixing). Batter will be thick.
5
Crush half of the blueberries - I pour them into a Ziplock sandwich bag and mush them up by squishing against a counter. Stir mashed berries into batter until everything is combined.
6
Gently fold in the remaining whole blueberries and about 2/3rds of the nuts if using them.
7
Pour into the prepared pan and sprinkle the top with rest of the nuts and as much of the remaining cinnamon sugar mix as you'd like.
8
Bake for 60 minutes, or until tester comes out clean. I start checking around 50 minutes. Let cool completely before eating.
9
* If you have fresh lemons they can be substituted. I'm sure lemon juice could be as well but have never tried it.
10
** You can also substitute half of the oil for applesauce for less fat. Meant to try this but never have.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.

No specific allergen information. Please check the ingredient list for possible allergens.
