Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1/2 teaspoon Kosher Salt
- 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar
- 1/2 cup Butter, softened
- 3 medium Mashed Ripe Bananas
- 2 large Eggs, room temperature
- 1/2 cup Yogurt (vanilla/plain)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 cup Fresh Blueberries

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and kosher salt.
- In a larger bowl, cream the granulated sugar and softened butter until fluffy.
- Add the mashed ripe bananas, eggs, yogurt, and vanilla extract to the butter mixture. Mix until well blended.
- Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Toss the fresh blueberries with 1 tablespoon of flour to prevent them from sinking, then gently fold them into the batter.
- Pour the batter into a greased 8.5 x 4.5-inch loaf pan, smoothing the top.
- Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Use overripe bananas for the best sweetness and moisture.
- Avoid overmixing the batter after adding the flour.
- If using frozen blueberries, toss them in flour and add directly from the freezer.
- Toss blueberries in a tablespoon of flour before folding into the batter to prevent them from sinking.
- Serve warm with butter or honey for extra sweetness.
