Ingredients

Blueberries And Bananas
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 2 large bananas)
  • 1/2 cup fresh blueberries

Cinnamon Crunch Topping

Cinnamon Crunch
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan with non-stick cooking spray.

2. In a medium-size bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

3. In a separate large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, making sure to fully incorporate each one before adding the next.

4. Add in the mashed bananas and mix until well combined. Gradually stir in the flour mixture, mixing until just combined.

5. Gently fold in the fresh blueberries. Be careful not to overmix the batter or the blueberries will burst.

6. Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan.

7. In a small bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, and cinnamon for the topping. Cut in the cold butter with a pastry blender or fork until the mixture is crumbly. Sprinkle the topping over the bread batter in the loaf pan.

8. Bake for 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.

9. Allow the bread to cool in the loaf pan for 10 minutes before removing it to a wire rack to cool completely.
