Whole Wheat Blueberry Braid recipe. This shape is called a false plait and is perfect for encasing a thick berry filling such as the luscious one used here. Make this bread during the height of blueberry season, which is mid-to late summer. Make sure to wash the blueberries right before using, otherwise they will absorb water as they sit. When fresh blueberries aren’t available, use frozen ones, which work just as well.

Makes 2 large long loaves.
