Forked from @remixipe's recipe — added walnuts and blueberries for texture and those jammy pockets
Forked from the Remixipe Kitchen banana bread and taken somewhere new — blueberries for jammy pockets throughout, and toasted walnuts for crunch and depth. Toasting the walnuts is non-negotiable.
Preheat oven to 180°C fan. Grease and line a 900g loaf tin.
Mash the bananas thoroughly in a large bowl.
Add butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Stir to combine.
Sift in flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Fold gently until just combined.
Fold in the walnuts and blueberries — the blueberries will burst slightly as they bake, creating jammy pockets throughout.
Pour into the prepared tin and bake for 60–70 minutes. The blueberries add moisture so it may need a few extra minutes. Test with a skewer.
Cool in the tin for 15 minutes before turning out.
