Old Fashioned Pecan Bread

This is an oldie redone into what I had left in the pantry.

Blueberries out, pecans in.

It’s crazy how the same batter can taste so different featuring just one extra ingredient.

My family of beach-goers chowed down on this for breakfast. Heated, served with cream cheese? The best.
