Blueberry Orange Bread

Preheat oven to 350°F.
Prepare one package Krusteaz Wild Blueberry Muffin Mix as directed (don't use fat free version), reducing water to 1/3 cup and adding 2 teaspoons finely grated orange zest.
Place batter in prepared 8½ x 4½ x 2½-inch loaf pan. Bake 44-48 minutes or until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.
Cool 10 minutes and remove to wire rack. Cool completely and drizzle with orange glaze, if desired.

Orange Glaze: Whisk together 3/4 cup powdered sugar and 1–2 tablespoons orange juice until smooth.

Microwave score: This doesn't need to be hot to enjoy. Just as good at room temp.
Freezer score: Haven't tried it, but would probably work fine. I would not put the glaze on until after you defrost it though.
Overall Score: 4.5 Yummy variation on the blueberry muffins. Can dry out if not stored properly.

Larissa's critique: I LOVE this bread! I kind of crave it regularly. I haven't made it for my husband yet, but I need to! I give this a 5.0. Its simply delicious.
