Equipment

Ingredients
 
 

  • ½ cup butter (1 stick)
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup sour cream (or plain greek yogurt)
  • 2 bananas (ripe)
  • 2 ½ cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup blueberries

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. 
  • Cream butter and sugar together for 1-2 minutes. 
  • Add the 2 eggs and cream together again for 1-2 more minutes until it's light and fluffy. 
  • Add the vanilla extract and sour cream and mix in thoroughly.
  • Add the bananas whole and mix until broken up and combined in the dough. About 30 seconds.
  • Add the dry ingredients and mix until almost combined but there are still streaks of flour in the batter. 
  • Add the blueberries and gently fold them in until evenly distributed.
  • Pour into a greased loaf pan (see note) and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out with a few crumbs on it. 

Notes

I use a standard size loaf pan - 9 in x 5 in. If you have 2 smaller pans, that is also fine. Just adjust the baking time down by about 15 minutes.
