Happy
February!
After returning home from our last trip up north, a lazy baking weekend
followed. Sunday morning felt fresh and sunny, and with it the urge to bake
something sweet, something delightful.
And quick breads are always a wonderful option to me.I had some blueberries and wholewheat flour waiting to be used, so needless to say that blueberry + orange muffins became part of our morning breakfast!
The fragrance of fresh baking and sweet blueberries...
