Blueberry, Lemon & White Chocolate Quick Bread image

I had a bunch of fresh blueberries, lemons, buttermilk & white chocolate chips to use up after the Scandinavian leg of the Zaar World Tour #6. This morning I was making a Greek breakfast wrap for Zingo that would use up Kalamata olives & feta cheese, but I wasn't sure my family was going to like it, so I created this moist & delicious quick bread to "sweeten the deal". ;) Incidentally, they ended up enjoying both the Greek wraps & the bread! :D

This bread was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less sugar. However, the texture of the bread was perfect and the blueberries and white chocolate were a nice touch. I might try making it again with less sugar next

I was a bit skeptical about this recipe because I'm not a big fan of lemon, but I was pleasantly surprised. The lemon flavor is subtle and it really complements the blueberries and white chocolate. The bread is also very moist and fluffy. I will defi
