Easter Brunch

I hope you all had a great easter!

 

 

I certainly had! On Easter Sunday, we had a brunch with our niece and aunt. This was what the table looked like... It was stuffed with all kind of (sweet) stuff! I had made everything. The most things I made on Saturday, but the cookies I made on Friday (to make sure I had something to eat while making all the other things :D ) and the scones I made on Sunday morning.

 

 

On le internet (yeah, putting le before a word totally makes it French), I found these super cute easter tags that I put on top of my cupcakes and sweet rolls. You can download them here  (for next year probably :D ) and I forgot where I downloaded the other happy easter tags..... Sorry!

Here´s what I made:
-Cranberry and dark chocolate sweet rolls
-Cranberry, almond and orange zest crusty bread
-Raspberry hazelnut cupcakes with white chocolate cream cheese frosting
-Easter M&M cookies, egg shaped
-Chocolate chip cookies in het shape of an egg (just press an egg shape cookie cutter in the cookies when they get out of the oven)
-Blueberry oatmeal bread
-Summer berry yoghurt tart
-Scones
-Italian easter bread

Well, that´s it I guess. Ofcourse it was way to much for a brunch, but whatevah... The next day we had a high tea, so we just took any leftovers with us, and I made a speckled egg cake (picture + recipe coming soon) And we do like to eat! So everything is now gone. :)

 I will now share the recipe for the Blueberry Oatmeal Bread with you, the rest of the recipes will follow soon.
This bread/cake was delicious! I really loved it. And it's even some kind of healty-ish-ish!! It's one of my favorites. It was somewhere between a cake and a bread, and just out of the oven with a bit of butter..... Hmmm.... Really amazing.
Try for yourself!


Blueberry Oatmeal Bread
From Go Bold With Butter
Makes one loaf

Ingredients:
1 cup blueberries
2 cups flour, plus 1 tablespoon
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup Greek yogurt
2 eggs
½ cup (1 stick) butter, melted and cooled slightly
1 teaspoon vanilla
½ cup oats

Directions:
Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper or lightly butter and dust with flour.
In a small bowl, toss blueberries with 1 tablespoon flour to keep blueberries from sinking. In a large bowl, whisk 2 cups flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. In a separate bowl, mix yogurt, eggs, melted butter and vanilla together and then fold into the dry ingredients. Add the blueberries and oats and gently combine.
Scrape the mixture to loaf pan. It will be thick and a little sticky. Bake for 50-55 minutes and golden brown and when a toothpick inserted into the bread comes out clean. Remove from oven and cool in the pan for 5 minutes then cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.


Notes:
-I was able to make one big loaf and one small one, that we immediately ate when it came out of the oven!
-It's the best just out of the oven with a bit of butter.
