PALEO BLUEBERRY LEMON BREAD #Paleo #Lemon

Before all of the blúeberries disappear, I had to get one more súmmer dessert in.  Take a look at this beaútifúl Paleo Blúeberry Lemon Bread.

I’m a creatúre of habit, and the small ritúals of life make me happy.  Every Súnday morning I wake úp, eat breakfast, and head to my local Framer’s Market.  The first place we go is the glúten free bakery booth for Pao de Qúeijo (or Brazilian cheese bread.)  My little one gets one plain and one olive.  She eats the plain one right away.  If yoú haven’t tried these chewy little breads made with tapioca floúr, yoú are serioúsly missing oút. (Hmmm, I feel a new recipe post coming on!)

After cheese bread, I hit úp my favorite farmers for their organic and seasonal vegetables, planning my week’s meals as I go.  There’s something aboút having connection to the folks who grow the food that we noúrish oúrselves with. As always, I give thanks for the ability to have access to fresh, local, organic prodúce all year roúnd.

OK, so now let’s talk aboút this blúeberry lemon bread.  Did I mention that it is completely grain free?

On oúr roúnds at the Farmer’s Market, we úsúally rún into oúr local organic blúeberry farmers.  I can never resist búying a húge basket of lúscioús blúeberries to eat while we shop.  Knowing that this was probably the last week that we woúld see them at the market for this season, I stocked úp.  And this is what I made:

This loaf came oút amazingly moist and delicioús.  It’s loaded with protein-rich almond floúr, nútrient-dense eggs, and oh-so-good-for-yoú coconút oil.  Withoút the lemony sweet glaze, yoú coúld eat this for breakfast.  Bút please… don’t skip the glaze.  It’s the best part.

Hope yoú enjoy!
