Ingredients
- ½ cup butter softened
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 eggs
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour plus 1 tablespoon reserved for the berries
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 3 large very ripe bananas about 1½ cups mashed
- ½ cup sour cream
- 1 cup blueberries divided
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line (2) 8"x4" loaf pans with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Combine the butter and sugar in a mixing bowl and beat with a mixer until smooth. Add the vanilla and eggs and beat again until smooth. Slowly add the dry ingredients, beating just until combined.
- Stir in the bananas and sour cream and beat just until combined.
- Sprinkle a tablespoon of flour over ¾ cup blueberries and toss to coat. Add the coated berries to the batter and stir gently to distribute them throughout the batter.
- Pour into the prepared pans. Scatter the remaining blueberries over the top of the loaves.
- Bake the loaves for 50-55 minutes, until an inserted toothpick comes out with moist crumbs. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to finish cooling.
