    This recipe has been an incredible hit.

    Since I've never been much of a fan of plain old blueberry anything (fresh blueberries is another story) I decided to dress up our ordinary fresh baked blueberry bread by replacing one item and adding a couple of new ones to the batter. Try it... you will absolutely love it!

    First... replace water called for in recipe with orange juice.

    Then... add the following add'l ingredients to already mixed batter:
    3/4 cup drained pineapple
    1 cup shredded coconut
    2 large spoonfuls of sour cream
    3 T. oil

    Mix all ingredients together and spread into greased pan. Bake approx. 50 minutes @ 350 F. or until knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

    "This is so incredibly good there won't be any leftovers... believe me!"
