    I made this last night and it came out really delicious! I also made the accompanying glaze and it was also delicious. I did add more blueberries andcoarsely chopped walnuts to the top of the loaves for presentation and crunch. The loaves were beautiful and I got raves on the deliciousness.

    When I make it again, I will substitute the vanilla for lemon extract; I forgot to do it this time.
