Yummy! Loved it so much I had to get back here to rate it. Made small alterations as many @home cooks like to do. I can't wait to make it again and bring it along with me to a church social.

I made 2 different kinds of Blueberry Banana Bread. I had only 1 slice of this one & by far love it better than the other & I thought it was good. This bread has substance to it & is great in the morning with coffee as well as in the evening with tea. A definite keeper.

I used half wheat flour, half white and cinnamon roll instant oatmeal. I also added a little vanilla flavoring. This makes a good sized loaf, so I had to cover it with foil halfway through to keep it from burning. Tasty loaf!

So I prob would give it 5 stars if I hadn't substituted all of the shortening w/apple sauce as other reviewers did. Next time I'll try half apple sauce, half oil - the sauce makes the crust a bit rubbery rather than classic crunchy, it also changes the flavor some. I was trying to be healthy, but some things aren't worth it. I'm going to make it again, and I do think putting the oil back into it will make it an exceptional bread. Very hearty. The only other change I made - well my husband got blackberries instead of blueberries so banana blackberry quick bread it was. I was hestitant at first but the berries held together and came out great in the bread. A nice variation. As for my husband, we are going to go to the grocery store together and review our fruits.

Good recipe! We bake a lot of quick breads, and I wanted to try something just a little different, so I liked the oats and blueberries added to this banana bread. I did use frozen, and only left them out on the counter until I was ready to use them, as I was worried if I microwaved them, they would be too moist and take up too much flour when I dredged them. I did leave out the pecans (family nut allergy) and substituted a 1/2 c of coconut oil (which is like a solid, even at room temp) for the shortening, as that's something we don't eat. Thanks for the recipe; it's a keeper!

This turned out really good! I doubled the blueberries and used butter because I had no shortening, but otherwise I kept it the same! Everybody seemed to enjoy it. My only problem was how long it took to bake, finally after about 1h15min I took it out, but the center was still a bit wet once I cut it. Oh well, I kinda like it gooey anyway!

This was excellent! Very moist and tastey. Next time I'll use applesauce in place of the shortening, I didn't have any on hand...but every little bit helps.

This was very good even with some "healthy" changes. I used extra blueberries, half whole wheat flour, and applesauce in the place of shortening. No one in my family even noticed the changes. Great recipe!

I substituted the shortening with applesauce. I did half of the sugar as regular white sugar and the other half as brown sugar. I also added cinnamon, ginger and a splash of almond extract. I used 1 cup of fresh blueberries. I ended up using a muffin tin that makes 6 extra large muffins instead of making a loaf. It's super tasty and a beautiful way to use those fresh picked Michigan blueberries!

Gone in 1 day. I used low fat sour cream instead of shortening(didnt have any) and it tasted really good. Not to mention it looked pretty, my hubby thought I bought it from the bakery. I condider that a compliment since I'm not the best baker.

Not a very sweet bread. I cut shortening in half & added cinammon applesauce. Cut down on sugar by 1/4, added tsp of vanilla & more blueberries, as other suggested. Next time, would add all the sugar and a little more applesauce and vanilla. Definitely pulse those oats in a food processor.
