Great as a lunch box filler, this tasty treat can be served warm or cold. The pretty blueberry sweet bread will also make a fantastic slice with a cup of tea.

Ingredients

cooking spray

125 g Pantalica Light Smooth ricotta

50 g light margarine, melted

2 x (60g) eggs, lightly whisked

zest and juice of 1 lemon

1 tsp vanilla extract

160 g (⅔ cup) caster sugar

160 g (1 cup) wholemeal self-raising flour

50 g (⅓ cup) plain flour

125 g punnet blueberries

Method

  3. Spoon mixture into prepared pan and smooth down surface. Bake for 45 minutes or until golden and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Set aside in pan for 10 minutes. Turn loaf out onto a wire rack and slice into 12 pieces. Serve warm or cold.
