Poppy Seed Blueberry Bread Recipe

Prep: 15 min. Bake: 40 min. + cooling

Yield: 10 Servings

15 40 55

Ingredients

1 package (18-1/4 ounces) blueberry muffin mix
1 egg
3/4 cup water
3 tablespoons canola oil
1 to 2 tablespoons poppy seeds
2 to 3 teaspoons grated lemon peel
GLAZE:
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1 to 2 tablespoons lemon juice

Directions

Drain and rinse blueberries from muffin mix; set aside. In a bowl, combine the muffin mix, egg, water, oil, poppy seeds and lemon peel just until blended. Fold in blueberries. Spread into two greased 5-3/4-in. x 3-in. x 2-in. loaf pans.
Bake at 350° for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.
In a small bowl, combine confectioner's sugar and enough lemon juice to achieve desired consistency; drizzle over warm loaves. Yield: 2 mini loaves (5 slices each).
