MB, just stay away, K?

Part II is finally here in our IV part series.  Part of my MB-less time was spent in the kitchen, making very tasty {in my opinion} treats for my coconspiritors.

To say thank you for taking time out of their busy lives to help me gift and MB and celebrate my beautiful, I made Kimberly, Anna and Mrs. Best Man the Pioneer Woman’s yogurt blueberry pound cake {which I fell in love with here}.  I think everyone enjoyed them some!

To Make to Enjoy and Share With Others

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

½ teaspoon salt

2 teaspoons baking powder

2 6-ounce cartons yogurt, any flavor

1 ¼ cups sugar

3 eggs, lightly beaten

1 teaspoon vanilla

1/4 cup canola oil

1 cup blueberries

As we can see, I used the light blueberry yogurt from Giant — I also had to double the recipe to double the joy.  Also I excitedly had the butter out which you {gasp!} do not need!!

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a loaf pan.

Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

In a separate bowl, mix together yogurt, sugar, eggs, vanilla, and oil until just combined.

Pour over dry ingredients and mix until just combined.

Gently stir in 1 cup blueberries. Do not overbeat.

I went sans mixer for this one to ensure that I didn’t bust up my little blue friends too much.

Pour into a loaf pan and bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean.

In retrospectI should have baked them for about 80 mintues as the bottoms were more moist than I would have liked.

Remove from oven and allow to cool.  Then package adorablely with Crunchy Flavors Banana Strawberry Muffins.

Et Vioala!  A Thank You Gift fit for the best girls in the whole wide world!!

What is your fav bake good to gifts?
