Ingredients
- 2 large ripe bananas, about 1 ½ cups mashed
- ½ cup Greek yogurt, vanilla or plain
- ½ cup butter, melted
- ½ cup white sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 ½ cups blueberries, fresh or frozen
Instructions
Prep:
- Preheat the oven to 350F. Grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
Make the batter:
- Mash the bananas in a large bowl. Add the Greek yogurt, melted butter, and eggs, and whisk until combined. Then, add the sugar and vanilla, and mix to incorporate.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients bowl until just combined. Add the blueberries to the bowl and gently fold them into the batter using a spatula. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- Optional: Slice a banana in half lengthwise and place it on top of the batter.
Bake:
- Bake for 55 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. After 40 minutes, check the bread. If the top of the loaf is getting too brown, cover it with a piece of tin foil and keep baking.
- Remove the banana bread from the oven. Allow it to cool down for 15 minutes before removing it from the pan and cutting it into slices.
