This recipe for Blueberry Banana Bread is a tender, delicious quick bread filled with blueberries. Perfect for the season, made with Greek yogurt and seasoned with cinnamon.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and coat a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and baking powder. Set aside.
Combine the sugar and mashed bananas in a large bowl. Whisk in the eggs, Greek yogurt, cooking oil and vanilla extract until smooth. Fold the flour mixture into the egg mixture until just combined and there are no white flour streaks.
Reserve several blueberries to sprinkle on top of the bread before baking and toss the remaining berries in 1 tablespoon of flour. This helps prevent them from sinking to the bottom during baking. Gently fold the blueberries into the batter.
Spoon batter into the prepared loaf pan and sprinkle the reserved blueberries over the top of the batter.
Bake for 55 to 65 minutes, or until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool the bread for 10 minutes in the pan before removing to a wire rack to cool before glazing or slicing.
