I used to joke that they were basically tiny senior citizens, requesting Bob Evans for dinner and wanting to eat it at 4pm.

The classic banana bread recipe is always welcome, but I really like to experiment with new things. How to:  You’ll need either a stand mixer or hand mixer for this recipe as you’ll start out by creaming together the butter and sugar until it’s light fluffy. Beat in the eggs, vanilla, and mashed bananas. Be sure to use extra ripe bananas. The ugly brown bananas are perfect for this recipe, since they’re soft and sweet. Whisk the dry ingredients together and stir that into your banana mixture until just combined.

Don’t overmix your banana bread or it will become tough instead of tender. Toss some blueberries in a bit of flour to coat. This will help keep the blueberries from sinking to the bottom of the batter. We always top the batter with extra blueberries.
