The Best Blueberry Banana Bread

 

Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter (1 stick) softened

1 cup sugar

2 eggs

1 T vanilla

2-3 ripe bananas, mashed

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 t baking soda

1 t baking powder

1/2 t salt

2 cups blueberries

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350.

In a stand mixture cream together butter and sugar for a few minutes until light and creamy. This is when I mix the dry ingredients. Add eggs one at a time. Beat in vanilla extract. Add mashed bananas and mix until well combined.

In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Stir with a whisk until combined. Slowly add dry ingredients to banana mixture until just combined. Do not over mix.

Toss blueberries into mix. Reserve and handful to place onto top of mixture. 

Pour batter into a prepared loaf pan (spray with baking cooking spray). Bake for 50 minutes and check if done with a toothpick inserted into middle with bread. Tent with aluminum foil if browning too quickly.

Allow to cool completely.
