Ingredients

  • 75 g unsalted butter at room temperature
  • 150 g granulated sugar
  • 300 g peeled bananas, mashed (2-3 bananas)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract or essence
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 190 g all purpose flour
  • 90 g fresh blueberries cut them in half if they're too big

Instructions

  • Beat the butter with the sugar until it looks very creamy. You can use a whisk, a handheld mixer or a stand mixer.
  • Add the mashed bananas and beat again.
  • Add the eggs and beat again to incorporate. It should look foamy.
  • Add the vanilla, cinnamon, baking powder and salt and incorporate.
  • Finish the batter by mixing in the flour. If you were using a whisk, switch to a spatula. Then, add the blueberries and fold them in with a spatula.
  • Line a 22x11cm/ 9x4in pan with parchment or baking paper. Pour the batter inside and level it out.
  • Optional: Make a like of thin strips of cold butter along the centre to make it open evenly as it bakes.
  • Bake the blueberry banana bread in a preheated oven at 180℃/350℉ for 1 hour or until you put a skewer or a small serrated knife at the centre and it comes out clean. If the bread needs a bit longer in the oven but it' golden enough on top. you can cover it with aluminum foil.
