Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour (250g) plus extra for coating berries
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted and slightly cooled (113g)
- 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar (115g)
- 4 large very ripe brown bananas mashed (about 1 1/2 cups)
- 2 large eggs room temperature
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh blueberries (148g)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350º F. Line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper, lightly grease with nonstick spray.
- In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir with a whisk and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the butter and sugar. Beat with an electric mixer for 90 seconds until combined. Add the eggs and vanilla, and mix until combined, about 30 seconds.
- Pour the mashed bananas into the butter mixture and beat until well combined, about 90 seconds.
- Add flour mixture to the batter and mix just until the flour is incorporated, taking care not to overwork the batter.
- Toss fresh blueberries in a tablespoon of flour. Stir into the batter using a rubber spatula.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and bake for 55 to 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few dry crumbs (try to find a spot without blueberries).
- Cool the bread in the pan on a wire rack for 20 minutes. Remove the bread and cool completely on a wire rack.
