How do you feel about basil? I have a recipe for a lemon / basil / blueberry loaf sitting around somewhere and I’d be happy to dig it out to share if you’re interested :)

Edit to include the recipe:

Preheat oven to 350*, grease a 9x5 loaf pan and set it to the side In the food processor, combine 1/2 cup fresh ripe blueberries with five or six large fresh basil leaves and set aside.

Cream 1 cup sugar with 1/2 cup unsalted butter Beat in 2 large eggs Add 1/2 cup buttermilk, just until combined. Don't overstir. In another bowl combine 1 1/2 cup flour, 1 tsp baking powder, and pinch of salt, then stir into the batter just until combined. Add zest from 1 lemon into the batter. Now add the batter to your loaf pan and fold in the blueberry/basil puree for a marbled effect. Bake for 55 minutes (the recipe I have actually says an hour, but keep an eye on it - this is supposed to be really moist) aaand thats it. :)

Hope you all enjoy!
