Since I had a few containers of blueberries in my fridge, I figured why not add them to the recipe! 

Blueberries are folded in the batter and on top, giving it a superior flavor and texture. 

Best of all, there’s no need to add any icing or frosting on top.

    1. Thank you Dawn and welcome to our blog!
      It's nice to meet you! And we look forward to hearing from you again!
      Enjoy and have a great weekend!

    1. Yes so true! The sour cream also makes it very moist but I feel it's the amount of the bananas mashed that helps make this bread so moist. I have made it with less bananas and the texture was different- not as moist.

  1. I have never tried Blueberry Banana Bread. This looks lovely! And if it has been endorsed by your daughter – who likely has had more than her good share of excellent food – it must be over the top!
