Breakfast Ideas
Poppy Seed Muffins, Zucchini Bread, Blueberry Muffins

Summer in the Lowcountry for many of us means visits by friends and family from around the country. Our way of simplifying the arrival of house guests is to make breakfast options ahead of time and freeze them. All of the muffins, as well as the zucchini bread, will keep 4-6 weeks in the freezer. The addition of some local fresh fruit will make any of these a great way to start the day and the abundance of zucchini and blueberries makes this the perfect time of year to try two of the following recipes. Even though everyone has several zucchini bread recipes, this one is worth making. Developed and refined over a number of years by Willie Benau, who operates the Victorian Inn on the Park in San Francisco, it is exceptionally good. If time doesn't permit baking before your guests arrive, the apple syrup can be made quickly and served over your favorite pancake recipe.
