Banana-Blueberry Cream Cheese Bread
Banana blueberry bread is super moist and loaded with blueberries. Sure to become one of your favorites!
Blueberries add such an amazing pop of flavor and they are currently coming into season. So why not toss them into some banana bread to give it that extra pop. If you just it without the blueberries try my Cream Cheese Banana Bread!
Even as we speak I have bananas that my hubby didn't get to in time. Now they are past the point of edible in his opinion. So that means they're now all mine for some yummy banana blueberry bread.
Have one loaf now and throw the second one in the freezer. Whether you enjoy this as a snack or for breakfast, this bread is so moist and flavorful. Top it off with a pat of butter. Yummy!!

I have not tried this with any sugar alternatives you could cut the sugar back it just won't taste as sweet.
I am trying to cut added sugar out of mine and my husband's diet. Do you have any suggestion on making this with less sugar? I have used this recipe several times and we really love it but I am not good at recipe conversion. TY in advance whether or not you can help.
Not with this recipe or it would be in the recipe card. You can add a glaze by mixing confectioners sugar and a little milk and drizzle over the top.
Is there a glaze or streusel recipe to top the bread with?
Frozen blueberries will work, just don't thaw them first.
Can frozen blueberries be used? Would that change anything in the instructions?
Yes, you'll just have to adjust the baking time and it's done when a wooden pick or knife comes out clean.
Can it be made in a 9x5 loaf pan?
Yay so happy everybody loved it 🙂
