Gluten Free Lemon Blueberry Bread

It uses the common white rice, brown rice, tapioca, and potato gluten free flour mix. I used an all brown rice, tapioca, potato mix I made because it's what I had handy. I think Namaste or Bob's 1 to 1 would work fine so long as you changed or eliminated the xanthan, salt, and/or baking soda as needed.

(let me know it it's too blurry so I can take another pic)

All three were baked on the middle rack (I have 3) in the middle of the oven for the full 60 minutes. The silicone pan one got a tiny bit overbrowned on the bottom corners of the loaf. It also did not rise as well. The metal pan loaves rose up over 1 & 1/2 inches whereas the silicone loaf rose only about 3/4 inch or less. Probably due to the heat conductivity differences.

Pretty tasty. Not overly sweet with a nice balance of lemon to blueberry.
A lemon glaze would have been terrific, but I'm trying to cut sweets where I can so did not do a glaze. It's plenty moist and delicious all by itself and has a nice almost crispy crust from the amount of sugar.
Would go perfect with a cup of coffee, tea, or whatever brunchy get together one might be having.

Couple of things I changed... I used big fat frozen blueberries, thawed. I swapped in some splenda for some of the sugar, and I used a stand mixer and made all three batches together. Also my pans were an inch bigger all the way around than what the recipe called for.

Thanks for the recipe!

Today was all outside work. Tomorrow may be too, but I might need to dodge the raindrops.

Popcorn for dinner tonight, after I have the salad I picked in the green house this afternoon.

I am green over your greenhouse. My lettuce is still to small to pick.

It's not heated, so stuff that's in there is what I planted November 1. And this is my first picking. While it didn't die during the winter, it sure didn't grow either!

@BullChick I gotta admit...you are right! It's totally delightful watching a bowl of pancake batter grow and bubble because you added sourdough starter to it.
And the actual pancakes are the bomb!

That was us Fri and Sat, after it had been 81 on Wed. Right now it's 73 and will be 80 on Wed.
Spring seems to be confused.

Please do not come back ...Snow.

Ditto that!

Today's lunch was all homegrown, except for the rice. And the oil and spices. I've been trying to include at least one homegrown ingredient in everything, as much as possible. With baking, it's the eggs.
