My family loves to enjoy banana bread in the morning with their breakfast. Yesterday, I looked through my freezer thinking I had a few frozen bananas, but realized I used them up already. I had told my son that he could help me make some bread, but once I realized I had no bananas, I decided to look around for what I did have. I ended up coming across our bag of frozen blueberries. So, our plan to make banana bread got changed to blueberry bread. My son was in charge of adding the ingredients as I handed them to him and let me tell you, what a great helper he was! For four years old, he is definitely a cook/baker in the making. Once this was baked and cooled, we cut ourselves each a piece and decided that it was a new favorite! We ended up having this after dinner for our “dessert” and everyone loved it. My oldest son had two slices and asked for more the next morning with breakfast. Not only is this incredibly simple to make, but there are not very many ingredients, so it is something you may even be able to whip up with what you have at home already!! Enjoy!
