Julie, I love your recipe for Blueberry bread, but my family don’t want the icing, so what type of sugar do you suggest topping it with?
Hi Pennye!
You don’t actually need to top it with anything, it will be plenty flavorful and sweet without the icing. However, you can always dust it with a little extra granulated sugar for a fun addition! You can also do this cream cheese glaze if you’re looking for a different flavor profile: https://julieblanner.com/cream-cheese-glaze/
Enjoy!
