This Flourless Blueberry Banana Bread is a moist, naturally sweet loaf made without any flour, using ripe bananas and crunchy peanut butter as the base. Perfectly suited for those avoiding flour, this bread combines the natural sweetness of bananas with fresh blueberries and a hint of vanilla, baked to golden perfection with a soft crumb and a fruity topping.

Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 cup crunchy peanut butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 cup fresh blueberries

Topping

  • A handful of blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (320°F fan). Grease a loaf pan with cooking oil spray or butter to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed ripe bananas, crunchy peanut butter, vanilla extract, and eggs. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
  3. Add Dry Ingredient and Blueberries: Add the baking powder to the wet mixture and fold gently. Then, carefully fold in the fresh blueberries to avoid breaking them.
  4. Transfer Batter and Top: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top slightly. Scatter a handful of additional blueberries over the surface for a fruity topping.
  5. Bake: Place the loaf pan in the center of the oven and bake for 50-55 minutes. If the top browns too quickly, cover it loosely with tin foil to prevent burning. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; if it comes out clean or with just a few crumbs, the bread is done. If not, bake for another 5-10 minutes.
  6. Cool and Serve: Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool inside the loaf pan for about 15-20 minutes. Then, remove from the pan, slice, and serve.

Notes

  • Use very ripe bananas for maximum sweetness and moisture.
  • If fresh blueberries are not available, frozen blueberries can be used but do not thaw before adding.
  • Covering the bread with foil halfway through baking prevents over-browning the top.
  • Store bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate to extend freshness.
  • This recipe is naturally gluten-free and flourless, making it suitable for those with gluten sensitivities.
