Banana Blueberry Oatmeal Bread 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.

BAKED BLUEBERRY BANANA OATMEAL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray an 8-inch square glass or ceramic baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. You want the mixture to be 3 to 4 inches high in the dish so it doesn't dry out.
• Combine the oats, 1 tablespoon of the dark brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nuts, if using, and salt in a large bowl.
• Mash 1/2 of the banana in a medium bowl. Whisk in the milk, melted butter, vanilla and egg until combined.
• Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until fully incorporated. Very gently fold in the blueberries with a rubber spatula.
• Pour the oatmeal into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top. Thinly slice the remaining 1/2 banana crosswise and arrange the slices in an even layer over the top. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon dark brown sugar (see Cook's Note). Bake until the top is slightly browned and the oats are tender, 35 to 45 minutes. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Place an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and flour a 9- by 5- by 3-inch loaf pan. Set aside.

• Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake until a cake tester inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool for 15 minutes. Remove the loaf from the pan and cool completely on a wire rack, about 2 hours.
