Blueberry Banana Loaf Bread

If you love Banana Bread like I do, why not add more flavor by adding blueberries? Once you do, you will be amazed how good it is. This Blueberry Banana Loaf Bread is very moist and loaded with lots of blueberry flavor.

I used my Easy Banana Bread recipe to make the batter (I cut the recipe in half to make one loaf) and filled fresh blueberries that I cooked with sugar. I added the mixture in the middle and on top, made a swirl to combine it with the batter to create a swirl effect.  It looks lovely! Super easy to make and delicious!

If you can't find fresh blueberries or find it expensive, you can use store-bought blueberry pie filling in can. I haven't tried it but I don't see a reason why you can't. But me personally, I love the fresh ones. If you have extra blueberries, I suggest to make my Blueberry Muffins. It's another easy recipe I know for sure you will love. And more suggestions below.
