Blueberry and White Chocolate Banana Bread
This Blueberry and White Chocolate Banana Bread recipe is Banana Bread elevated to a whole new level. This recipe holds the same flavours and texture of a traditional banana bread but instead, with melted white chocolate and oozing blueberries…. dreamy!
Ingredients
- 290 g Banana over-ripe
- 1 Banana optional
- 180 g White caster sugar super-fine
- 75 ml Vegetable/ coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon Baking powder
- 195 g Plain white flour all-purpose
- 150 g Blueberries
- 100 g White chocolate chunks
Instructions
- Pre-heat your oven to 180°C/ 356°F. Grease a rectangular baking tin with a small amount of vg butter
- Smash your bananas up to form a smooth banana paste. I use a food processor for this (it makes it way easier and quicker).
- After your banana paste has formed, place it into a large bowl. Then add the oil, sugar, baking soda, baking powder and flour to the bowl, in that order. Whisk together after each ingredient addition. If you used a food processor to blend the bananas, you could just mix the ingredients in there, whizzing it very briefly until combined.
- Add 90% of the blueberries and 90% of the white chocolate chips (the remaining will be used for the top of the banana bread). Mix until all combined with a spoon.
- Pour the batter into the greased baking tin. Cut your whole banana in half and place on top of the mixture, seed side up. This stage is optional, you can make the banana bread without this (note. this whole banana cannot be overripe otherwise it might make the bread soggy). Scatter the rest of the chocolate and blueberries around the banana. Bake the banana bread for 50 minutes, or until a knife comes out of the middle clean. If a knife comes out of the middle wet, keep the banana bread in the oven for further minutes, until it is completely cooked. This may be due to your oven temperature/ heat spots.
- Serve up your banana bread whilst it is still warm and enjoy!
