Blueberry Lemon Loaf & Glaze
The moment is finally here everyone, blueberry season! We wait all year long for these beautiful things! This year the kids and I tackled the bushes over at Klassen Farms. This was the first time the kids had ever picked blueberries and it wasn’t the easiest thats for sure, but we did get some yummy berries out of it. Actually a lot of berries so with all of those berries we made a little something sweet on the weekend!
Super, super easy recipe that even I didn’t mess up so even the worst baker can make this happen! Follow the recipe below and good luck! Check out Klassen Farms for their u-pick times in Chilliwack. And catch the blue stands on your way around town if picking just isn’t an option. Either way it all tastes great!
