Lemon Blueberry Poppy Seed Bread

Submitted by Old widow

"This recipe is from a collection of recipes from the labels of food products. I don't really know what label it originally came from. It has a very light cake like texture. I like to make it for spring and summer. It is very lemony and sweet but light. You should use a muffin mix that includes a can of berries for the best result."

This was good and quick to throw together. I had some lemon juice leftover after juicing the lemon for the glaze (I made that first) so I subbed about 1/8 cup lemon juice for the water. Made the muffins extra tangy but with all the sugar in the mix and glaze, it was a nice balance and I will do that again..Thanks for posting!
