Delicious and moist. It's more like a cake than a bread. Looks as good as it tastes and easy to make. Also great with a little spread of lemon curd.

BLUEBERRY BANANA NUT OATMEAL BREAD

I'm pretty sure I got this recipe from Southern Living, most likely back in the 1980s. There are similar ones already post but I love this one the very best. The flavors of the bananas and blueberries are balanced and the bread is not icky-sweet. I've made both a loaf as well as muffins from this recipe, which doubles easily. Also freezes well...

Dried Blueberry, Cranberry or Apricot Banana Nut Bread image

This recipe was found in Better Homes and Gardens Cook Book. I've used it for years, adjusting it to my specific tastes. I use either dried blueberries, or cranberries. I have only once used dried apricots, diced. It's fabulous either way, any way.

Time 3h5m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

½ cup canola oil
⅓ cup cold water
3 eggs
1 egg white
2 large bananas, mashed
1 cup white sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons flax seeds
¼ cup chopped pecans
1 pint fresh blueberries
¼ cup white sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  • Whisk together the canola oil, water, eggs, and egg white. Stir in the banana, then add 1 cup of sugar. Combine flour, baking soda, salt, and flax seeds in a separate bowl. Stir the banana mixture into the flour mixture. Fold in the pecans. Combine blueberries and 1/4 cup of sugar in a small bowl, then pour into the prepared pan. Carefully pour batter over the berries.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack. When the cake is completely cool, run a paring knife between the cake and the edge of the pan. Hold the cake pan on its side and gently tap the sides of the pan against the counter to loosen it. Cover the cake pan with a plate or cooling rack, and invert it to tip the cake out of the pan and onto the plate.

Tips:

  • For a sweeter bread, use ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the sweeter the bread will be.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Be sure to grease and flour your loaf pan before adding the batter. This will help the bread to rise evenly and prevent it from sticking to the pan.
  • Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that the bread is cooked all the way through.
  • Let the bread cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the bread to hold its shape.
