Zucchini Blueberry Breakfast Bread
This morning I woke up to a foggy mist of coolness. The perfect day for a cup of decaf herbal tea and some type of breakfast bread. My first thought was of the blueberries and zucchini I had purchased at the farmer's market. After checking out a few cookbooks and then the Internet I found this recipe on a blog called "Closet Cooking". Ingredients like whole wheat flour, pecans and vanilla yogurt, made this recipe feel just special.
The preparation was easy and the clean-up was not bad. The house smelled divine as this wonderful bread baked. After bread slightly cooled I cut the first piece and it was wonderful, moist and sweet and just downright delicious. The perfect way to start this summer week-end on the coast in the Pacific Northwest.
