Banana Blueberry Mini Loaves Recipes

BLUEBERRY BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 3 small loaf pans.
• Mix flour, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl.
• Beat butter and sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color. Add 1 egg and allow to blend into the butter mixture before adding the second egg along with vanilla extract. Beat mashed bananas thoroughly into the mixture. Add flour mixture in small increments while beating until just combined into a thick batter. Fold blueberries into the batter; pour into prepared loaf pans.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.

BLUEBERRY MINI LOAVES

Steps:

• Prepare 16 mini loaf pans with cooking spray and flour; set aside.
• (Note: I use petite loaf pans with capacity for 9 loaves, size 2 1/2 x 3 3/8 x 1 1/2 in; or use the mini loaf pan with capacity for 6 loaves, size 4 1/2 x 2 1/2 x 1 1/2 in, from Wilton Brand that you can buy at any local arts and crafts store).
• In a mixing bowl, combine flour, blueberries, sugar, baking powder, lemon peel, and salt; set aside.

• Beat egg whites and fold into dry and wet mixtures, stirring until moistened. Spoon each loaf pan with three ounces batter or about half cup of batter. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until tops are browned.
