Glaze

  • If the glaze appears to thick, add a couple of drops of milk, and stir to thin slightly.
  • If you would prefer the glaze thicker, add a teaspoonful of powdered sugar at a time, until desired thickness is achieved.
  • Place the bread on a serving plate, and ice the top of the bread with the glaze.
  • Add about 1 cup of blueberries to garnish the top. Cut the loaf in1 inch slices, serve, and Enjoy!
