Preparation

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon until well combined. Set aside.
• In another bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Then, add the granulated sugar, eggs, melted butter, buttermilk, and vanilla extract. Whisk until everything is nicely blended.
• Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently stir with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine.
• Gently fold in the blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
• Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Sprinkle the turbinado sugar on top for a delightful crunch and a touch of sweetness.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Keep an eye on it during the last few minutes to prevent over-browning.
• Once baked, remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and enjoy your delicious Blueberry Banana Bread warm or at room temperature!
