Ingredients you will need to make Banana Berry Bread
- Flour. All purpose flour. I have no tried using a flour alternative in this bread recipe.
- Baking Powder. You can omit this if you are using self-rising flour.
- Sugar Alternative. Select a granular sugar alternative that measures like regular sugar and that can be baked with, for best results.
- Bananas. Your bananas should be mashed for this recipe (which is why the bananas should be really ripe).
- Milk. A full fat milk will help to make this bread more moist.
- Oil. Use a neutral oil like vegetable oil.
- Eggs. Your eggs should be at room temperature for this recipe.
- Vanilla Extract.
- Berries. My bread was made using fresh blackberries. Frozen berries can be used without first thawing them.
Expert Tip ๐ You can use a self rising flour to make this recipe. Simply omit the baking powder and use the same amount of self rising flour (two cups).

Tips for making the best banana bread with berries.
My bread was made with blackberries. You can use any similar berry of your choice or even a combination of berries.
More helpful tips for you.
- When adding the berries to the mixing bowl, gently fold them in rather than stirring them. Blackberries tend to be fragile and as a result, can spread too much when they are overmixed.
- Make sure that you are using a very ripe banana for this recipe. Using a banana that is soft, will make it easier the blend the ingredients more successfully.
- When baking your bread check on it frequently while it is baking. Pulling the banana bread out of the oven too soon can cause the center to be soft or gooey as the bananas need to fully bake.
How to store leftover banana bread.
This bread should be stored in an airtight container. If properly stored, it should keep for about three days at room temperature and up to three months when frozen.
