There is only a subtle banana flavor it is added in mostly for texture not flavor, these bake out lovely with a nice high point on top --- if desired drizzle glaze over the tops of the cooled loaves, see my recipe#120835

These mini loaves are excellent for smaller portions of a delicious blueberry bread loaf, but especially good for a school bake sale. A recipe adapted from Mott's Applesauce, a healthier way to bake. Enjoy.

Time 50m

Yield 16 mini loaves, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

3 1/2 cups unbleached flour
1 cup applesauce, unsweetened
2 cups frozen blueberries
2 large eggs, whole
1 cup granulated sugar (or use Splenda Blend)
2 large egg whites, beaten (to make 1/4 cup)
4 teaspoons baking powder
4 tablespoons canola oil
2 teaspoons lemon peel, grated
1/2 cup milk (or use low-fat)
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
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.
In another mixing bowl, combine applesauce, whole eggs, oil, and milk. Mix with the flour mixture.
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.

Tips:

For the best results, use fresh blueberries. Frozen blueberries can be used, but they may release more liquid, which can make the loaves soggy.
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 careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the loaves tough.
Fill the loaf pans only about 2/3 full. The loaves will rise as they bake.
Bake the loaves until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the loaves cool in the pans for 10 minutes before turning them out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Conclusion:

Kittencal's Blueberry Mini Loaves are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. They are also a great way to use up fresh blueberries. With their moist and fluffy texture and sweet and tangy blueberry flavor, these mini loaves are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
