Steps:
- To prepare the dough, combine 2 1/2 cups flour with the salt, sugar and yeast in a large bowl. In a small saucepan, combine milk and butter, and place over low heat until milk is lukewarm. Pour into a bowl, and add eggs, vanilla and orange zest; mix until blended. Stir liquid ingredients into dry ingredients to make a soft dough, adding more flour if necessary.
- Using a mixer with a dough hook, or by hand, knead dough until smooth and springy. Place in an oiled bowl, and cover with plastic wrap. Leave to rise in a warm place until double in size, about 1 hour. (Or let rise in refrigerator overnight, returning to room temperature before proceeding to next step.)
- Punch air out of dough, and press it out into a shallow 12-by-8-inch baking pan. Cover with a kitchen towel, and leave to rise in a warm place 15 to 20 minutes longer.
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Prepare a glaze by mixing together egg and orange juice until blended. Paint glaze over dough. Spread blueberries on dough in a single layer. Chop pecans until splintery but not too fine. Mix with sugar and cinnamon, and sprinkle evenly over blueberries.
- Place pan in oven, and bake 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees, and bake until dough is risen and golden brown at edges, about 15 minutes more. Allow to cool about 10 minutes before slicing into 9 rectangles. Serve warm.

GRANDMA'S BLUEBERRY CREAM PIE
My grandmother used to work in a popular pie diner in the 60s and her blueberry cream pie was famous. Cherry topping goes well with this cream pie as well, but the blueberry topping really makes it shine, and always has people coming back for more.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Butter a 9x9-inch cake pan.
- Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- Cream sugar, butter, and vanilla together in another bowl. Add egg and beat well.
- Using a wooden spoon, stir in dry ingredients in 3 additions alternately with the milk (ending with dry) just until flour is incorporated. Do not overbeat. Fold in blueberries. Turn into the prepared cake pan and spread evenly with a spatula. Frozen blueberries make dough very stiff, so pressing with moistened fingertips works better for me. Combine 1 tablespoon sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl; sprinkle on top of batter.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes.
