Whether you're new to baking or a seasoned pro, this blueberry quick bread recipe is for you. Fresh (or frozen) blueberries and just a hint of vanilla make this bread almost taste like a dessert.
1/2 cup butter
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/3 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cup blueberries, fresh or if using frozen thaw them first
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour a loaf pan.
Combine the butter, sugar, and eggs in a mixing bowl. Beat on medium speed with an electric mixer until light and creamy.
Combine the flour and baking powder. With the mixer running, slowly add the flour mixture to the egg mixture, alternating it with the milk. Beat until the ingredients are incorporated.
Stir the vanilla and blueberries in with a spoon.
Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan. Place in the oven and bake at 350 degrees F for 1 hour or until it tests done.
Remove the pan from the oven and let cool. Store the bread in an airtight container.

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
This Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.

I give this recipe only a four only because the baking times are exaggerated and would've resulted in a burnt loaf if I hadn't kept a close eye on it; lessen it by twenty minutes for a nice golden brown. Also, this is more of a "pound cake" than a "bread." It's really, really tasty and super easy to make. :D
Might want to check your oven temperature as this baking time should be accurate. Also, quick breads are more like a dense cake since they don't contain yeast.
