BLUEBERRY-CORNMEAL LOAF CAKE
This recipe was first introduced in Eating Well magazine (a must read for health-minded cooks). A big fan of the rich sweetness of cornmeal, this attracted me immediately and the recipe here is my adaptation. It is dense and moist and well-studded with berries. The cake tastes even better after resting for a day, so consider making it in advance. I really like this with the orange blossom water as it intensifies the orange while adding a slight floral note. But either orange or lemon juice work quite well.
