Bláberja- og bananabrauð

Blueberry Banana Bread


Banana bread is very popular in Iceland - thanks to the US soldiers who were stationed in Iceland since 1941 and had a lasting influence on the diet of Icelanders. Here's a recipe for banana bread with fresh blueberries: Beautifully fluffy banana bread, beautifully fruity thanks to the blueberries and wonderfully crunchy cinnamon sprinkles - oh yes, I love it!


Ingredients

3 ripe bananas
80 g melted margarine
180 g brown sugar
1 egg
1 pinch of ground vanilla
360 g flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 pinch of salt
200 g fresh blueberries

60 g flour
60 g sugar
60 g margarine
1 tsp cinnamon
1 pinch of salt


Preparation

Preheat the oven to 350 °F (180 °C) upper/lower heat.

Mash the bananas carefully with a fork...


...until everything is relatively "mushy", but still a bit "piecey", ...


...and then mix the banana mixture with the melted margarine, sugar, egg and vanilla.


Sift in the flour and add the baking powder and salt and work everything into a smooth dough.


Then add the blueberries and stir in briefly.


Then put the dough into a loaf pan lined with baking paper.


Now in a second bowl, knead the flour with the sugar, margarine, cinnamon and salt to form crumbles.


Spread the sprinkles over the bread dough.


Bake in the preheated oven at 350 °F (180 °C) for about 60 minutes until the top of the blueberry-banana bread is beautifully golden.


Remove the mold from the oven, let it cool thoroughly and then carefully remove the bread from the mold.
