It’s blueberry banana bread time! Make a loaf of this wonderful, naturally sweetened banana bread and add some fresh blueberries for a fun twist on the classic banana bread recipe.

I don’t know about you, but banana bread is so nostalgic for me. The smell banana bread baking in the oven and I am immediately taken back to a crisp fall day cerca 2004. I was probably listening to Ja Rule or Ashanti in the kitchen while my dad baked loaves and loaves of banana bread (yes, I was totally into a little early 2000s R&B. There were probably cornrows in my hair, too). Anywho, we would save bananas in the freezer and when it was too full to fit anymore, my dad would bake all day.

Isn’t it crazy how different smells and scents take us immediately back to a memory? The brain is a crazy thing.

This Blueberry Banana Bread is a healthy banana bread recipe that will (hopefully) bring you back to your most joyful memories of blueberry muffins or banana bread. This blueberry banana bread is deliciously moist, naturally sweet, and I don’t know many people who would turn down a slice of this banana bread with a cup of coffee!

Another thing I love about this recipe is that it is pretty easy to change up the recipe if you are missing some ingredients. Don’t have blueberries? Feel free to sub your favorite berry or even some chocolate chips. If you feel like you’re not in the mood for bread, you can make this batter into muffins, too! Have no fear, there are so many ways you can change up this recipe.
