Delicious and moist. It's more like a cake than a bread. Looks as good as it tastes and easy to make. Also great with a little spread of lemon curd.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 12 servings

  • 1 ½ cups fresh blueberries

  • 2 tablespoons cake flour

  • ½ cup steel-cut oats

  • ½ cup chopped pecans

  • 1 ½ cups cake flour

  • 3 tablespoons cake flour

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • ½ cup white sugar

  • ½ cup brown sugar

  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt

  • ¼ cup applesauce

  • 2 eggs

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 cup mashed banana

  • 2 tablespoons cold butter

  • ¼ cup brown sugar

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 4 1/2x8 1/2-inch loaf pan.

  2. Stir and coat blueberries with 2 tablespoons cake flour in a bowl.

  3. Mix coated blueberries, oats, pecans, 1 1/2 cups plus 3 tablespoons cake flour, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.

  4. Beat white sugar, 1/2 cup brown sugar, Greek yogurt, and applesauce together in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time; beat after each addition. Add vanilla extract and mashed banana; beat lightly until well blended.

  5. Stir blueberry-flour mixture into yogurt mixture until just moistened. Spoon batter into prepared pan. Cut butter into 1/4 cup brown sugar in a small bowl until crumbly; sprinkle over batter.

  6. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of the bread comes out clean, about 55 minutes. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes; remove from pan and cool on wire rack for 1 hour.

Cook's Note:

You can use any combination of Greek yogurt, applesauce, shortening, or butter equaling 1/2 cup for the fat and liquid portion.
