Follow this simple recipe to make the best moist Blueberry Banana Bread. This guide provides clear steps for a delicious homemade loaf.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/3 cup melted unsalted butter or neutral oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup fresh or frozen blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a standard 9×5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the mashed bananas, granulated sugar, brown sugar, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until just combined.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Mix gently until just combined; do not overmix.
  5. Gently fold in the blueberries. If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them first.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  7. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before carefully removing it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, substitute half the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour.
  • If you want a crispier top, sprinkle 1 tablespoon of coarse sugar over the batter before baking.
  • To make this recipe gluten-free, substitute the all-purpose flour with a 1-to-1 gluten-free baking blend.
  • If you want to add nuts, stir in 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans with the blueberries.
