I have had the recipe for so long, I have know idea where it came from but can you say AMAZING?! The sweetness of the icing and blueberries are perfectly paired up with the crunch on the pecans. It is the one bread that I know I should always make two loafs as one just doesn't last long! Its great for a sweet breakfast or an afternoon treat. Really, it can go anywhere that food is needed. The hardest part is waiting until you can eat it! Your mouth will thank you for making it!
