Blueberry-Orange Bread
I made it yesterday and substituted whole wheat flour and Splenda. It's definitely not sweet, but it tastes great warm with butter and a cup of coffee! I liked it - I might add just a little more Spenda next time, but that's the only thing I would change.

Won't make again
I made a loaf of this bread yesterday. When combining all of the ingredients, I had to add about 1/2 cup more liquid before all of the dry ingredients would combine. The final product tastes kind of strange to me, I don't know if it's the cereal or the orange juice/zest. Oh well. I will choke it down, chased by some coffee, and never make it again.

Blueberry-Orange Bread
I made two loaves of this bread and both were gone in a day. This is a great receipe. Just what you need for a quick snack or breakfast. I am definitely making this again.
