I have been wanting to do blueberry bread/muffins for a while now. This blueberry bread came out great and can even be done with frozen blueberries. I used spelt flour in this and that is why I call it spelt blueberry bread. If you haven’t baked with spelt, I recommend you try it. It’s not gluten free, but it contains far less gluten than whole wheat. It’s great in muffin and bread recipes like this one.
Growing up in Massachusetts, we had wild blueberries everywhere in the woods behind our house. I would always pick them to bake with, or even just grab a handful and stuff them in my mouth. Man, those were they days. No worries about pesticides and GMOs then. Now I just buy organic and hope for the best. Maybe we will add them to our garden. I am just not sure how they grow here in Texas.
