This blueberry banana combination goes so well together and makes a super moist bread. Using lots of very ripe sweet bananas allows you to cut back on the fat without sacrificing the flavor and texture.

This is perfect for breakfast or snack and can also be made as muffins if you prefer. More banana bread variations I love are Banana Cranberry Bread, Roasted Strawberry Banana Bread, and Maple Pecan Banana Muffins.

I don’t know why it took me so long to add blueberries to my banana bread. It’s a delicious combination I’ll be doing more often. We love banana bread in my house, Madison especially loves when I make it so she can have it for breakfast or school snack.
