Feast Your Eyes!
First off, let’s talk about the star of the show, the bread that’s going to steal the spotlight. Are you ready? Drumroll, please…

Ingredients Galore!
Here’s what you’ll need to gather from your kitchen abyss:
- 3 ripe bananas, mashed (the riper, the better!)
- 1/3 cup melted coconut oil or butter
- 1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (because who doesn’t love a little spice?)
- 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 cup fresh blueberries (or frozen, no judgment here!)
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional, but why not amp up that crunch factor?)
Let’s Bake It!
Now that you’ve got your ingredients lined up, it’s time to transform your kitchen into a magical baking wonderland!
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan. Trust me, doing this will save you from a sticky situation later!
- In a large bowl, mix together the mashed bananas and melted coconut oil. Then, stir in the honey (or maple syrup if you’re feeling extra fancy!), eggs, and vanilla extract until combined.
- Sprinkle the baking soda, salt, and cinnamon over the banana mixture and mix in. Now it’s time for the flour! Gently fold it in until just combined. No need to overwork it – we’re not looking for a workout here!
- Last but not least, fold in the blueberries and walnuts if you’re using them. This is the part where your mixture should look like a colorful masterpiece!
- Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 50-60 minutes until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. You know it’s ready when your house smells like Heaven!
- Let it cool for about 10 minutes in the pan before transferring it to a wire rack. Then slice it up, and you’re ready to impress!
