Instructions How to Make Blueberry Banana Bread

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly spray a 9 x 5 loaf pan with baking spray or line with parchment and spray with non-stick baking spray.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda and salt with a wire whisk. Set aside.

Storing Blueberry Banana Bread

Banana bread can last up to five days at room temperature if it’s wrapped in plastic wrap or a ziplock bag and stored well. If you keep it in the fridge, it can last a whole week.

Freezing Blueberry Banana Bread

If you freeze banana bread and wrap it well with storage wrap and aluminum foil, it can last for a year. But for the best taste, you should defrost and eat it within three months.
