Maca Blueberry Bread

Maca Blueberry Bread Ingredients

There is nothing better than a delicious combination of different berries, maca powder, and orange or lemon zest in sweet pastry recipes.

This time I have decided to add frozen blueberries because I love the fantastic purple color they give when the bread is sliced and ready to be served. Some fresh or frozen cranberries, raspberries, or blackberries are also an excellent choice for your sweet maca bread but also a handful of finely chopped nuts which will add a nice touch of crunchiness.

Maca Blueberry Bread Mix

Once the bread is done and completely chilled, it can be stored in air-tight containers or Ziploc bags for days which is just perfect for a delicious breakfast or a quick snack. Goes perfectly with freshly squeezed orange juice, a glass of milk, or tea. Give it a try!
