Berry Breakfast Bread

The next time you see fresh blueberries or blackberries at the store I want you to think of me and my Berry Breakfast Bread. Let me show you how to stir it up!

• 4 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 cups sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 3 cups fresh or frozen blueberries (or blackberries)
• 4 lightly beaten eggs
• 2 cups of sour cream
• 1 cup vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

We’ll start by cracking four eggs in a small bowl and blending ‘em. To our eggs we’ll add two cups of sour cream along with a cup of vegetable oil and a teaspoon of vanilla extract. In a second dish, we’ll combine four cups of all-purpose flour with two cups sugar, two teaspoons baking powder, one teaspoon baking soda and a teaspoon of salt. Now, we’ll stir it all together and fold in three cups of our fresh berries, or frozen if you have to– it’ll be okay. We’ll pour our batter in a greased nine by thirteen casserole dish and bake it at 400 for about twenty minutes. I like to cut it into generous squares. (For the record, I’ve noticed that generous can be up for interpretation. I’m always trying to watch our serving sizes but when I tell Phil he just needs a little something sweet to cleanse his palette, he says his palette must be larger than mine cause it takes more to cleanse it!) Enjoy my Berry Breakfast Bread, folks. It’s good eating from the All Things Southern kitchen to yours!
