Mavi Beri Ekmek~Blueberry Bread


This is a recipe I did some time ago. it was not one of my favorites I must say. The blueberries I used were a bit tart and I think it should have been a bit sweeter. Be very careful about baking times with this recipe, and also don't over mix your batter either. Please send me your pictures or recipes of your successful blueberry bread. I would love to see and try them. Afiyet olsun!

Recipe
3 C Flour
2/3 C brown sugar
1/3 C Castor sugar
1 1/2 C milk
2 tbsp lemon juice
2 tsp lemon peel (optional)
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
2 C blueberries (frozen)
1 packet vanilla

Preheat oven to 350. Grease bread pan. Mix all dry ingredients in a bowl. Then in another bowl mix your wet ingredients. Minus one tablespoon flour and your blueberries. Then by hand, fold your ingredients together. In a separate bowl mix your teaspoon of flour with your blueberries. This will help to keep the blueberries from falling to the bottom. At last moment add your blueberries and fold into dough. Place in oven and lightly place a piece of tinfoil over top. You will have to bake for approximately 1 hour maybe more depending on your oven. Test with a baking stick inserted into center. If it comes out clean then you can remove and let rest for a few minutes. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and then remove from baking pan. Let completely cool on a baking rack before serve. Serve with a spread of butter, or as a dessert with a rich vanilla ice cream. Aftiyet olsun!
