    I feel like one can never have enough good banana bread recipes, and when I saw a pile of beautiful blueberries in the grocery store the other day, I knew I wanted to try a new one. I had never made a banana bread with buttermilk before but thought it would help make this bread light and fluffy, and it did. This bread is very delicious and super-easy to make. The blueberry is definitely front and center here and their flavor is perfect with the banana.

    While I love blueberry buttermilk banana bread, I also love my blueberry biscuits recipe. While these recipes both incorporate buttermilk and blueberries, the end result is very different.

    As you can probably tell from the picture, I used more than 1 cup of blueberries because I wanted the bread packed full. You are welcome to add as many as you like—the more the merrier as far as I’m concerned. And here’s a tip you might not know: tossing blueberries with a tiny bit of flour first keeps them from sinking to the bottom of the pan.
