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...

This recipe is fairly easy to make and is great. The original recipe is from a "mailbox recipe" set that I changed to make it into a banana bread recipe.

APPLE, BANANA,OATMEAL NUT BREAD



Apple, banana,oatmeal nut bread image

Just trying something different. Hope it turns out well. After making this, I believe it would be better to just make one loaf as two were not very big. I changed the directions to accommodate this. If you think you have too much batter for one loaf, make a couple of muffins with the excess.

BANANA NUT OATMEAL BREAD



Banana Nut Oatmeal Bread image

This bread has all the qualities of a quick bread plus great texture and a heavenly crust. The riper the bananas, the better the flavor. Steel-cut oats are the old-fashioned kind that are not pre-cooked, quick-cooking, or instant. You can find them in health food stores or in groceries that carry specialty type items.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas for a sweeter, more flavorful bread. Overripe bananas are ideal, as they will add a lot of natural sweetness to the bread.
  • Mash the bananas well before adding them to the batter. This will help to ensure that the bananas are evenly distributed throughout the bread and that they don't clump together.
  • Use a combination of oats and flour for a heartier bread. This will give the bread a more complex flavor and texture.
  • Add nuts, seeds, or dried fruit to the batter for a more flavorful bread. Some popular additions include walnuts, pecans, almonds, sunflower seeds, raisins, and cranberries.
  • Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that the bread is cooked through.
