Would you like to make a quick bread that’s more healthy?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You’re in the right place then! Check out this Healthy Blueberry Bread. It’s the perfect Summer breakfast to make, while fresh blueberries are big and juicy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My kids aren’t a huge fan of baked blueberries, but this bread is one of mine and my husband’s favorites. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I was a kid I wasn’t a fan of cooked blueberries either. And now I have no idea why! The flavor intensifies as the blueberries cook\/bake and the blueberries are ah-mazing.<\/strong> Like in my Blueberry Pancakes<\/a>, I just can’t get enough. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So here’s another recipe dedicated to the deliciousness that is blueberries when they’re cooked or baked into something<\/strong>. But in a healthy way, so I can eat this bread repeatedly while blueberries are in season. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Healthy Blueberry Bread itself is sweetened naturally with only maple syrup. It’s made fluffy and higher in protein with Greek yogurt (each slice has 9 grams of protein!). And it’s made with a blend of oat flour, almond flour and gluten-free all purpose flour, for a great textured bread that has more whole grains and protein.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I love to add cinnamon too, for a bit of a blueberry pie type of flavor<\/strong>. It’s my favorite that way!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This bread is also quick and easy to make, and it’s made mostly in one large mixing bowl. Whip this bread up in fifteen minutes and have breakfast ready for the rest of the week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Slices<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Let’s chat about the ingredients.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

First, to make this bread gluten-free<\/strong> be sure to use a gluten-free all purpose flour blend<\/a> and certified gluten-free oat flour<\/a>. If you don’t need it to be, you can use regular flour and oat flour that’s not certified gluten-free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This bread is sweetened with only maple syrup (or honey) and I would recommend that you keep it that way. In it’s place, you could also use about 3\/4 cup of white sugar if you’d like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I recommend using a thick and plain Greek yogurt<\/strong>, like Fage 2%<\/a> (which is my personal favorite). You could also use vanilla Greek yogurt. If you don’t have Greek yogurt, you can try using a thick plain or vanilla yogurt in it’s place. The Greek yogurt makes this bread moist but gives it great structure as well. It’s a must have!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And don’t skimp on the cinnamon! One simple teaspoon will add a touch of cinnamon flavor. If you’d like more, 2 teaspoons would work well too. It gives this bread a bit of a blueberry pie flavor, which is delicious. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last but not least: blueberries!<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

I recommend using fresh blueberries while they’re in season. <\/strong>I think frozen blueberries should work just as well, but you may need to bake the bread a few minutes longer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prior to adding the blueberries to the Healthy Blueberry Bread batter, you’ll toss them in flour.<\/strong> This will make it so the blueberries don’t sink to the bottom of the bread. Just one tablespoon of flour covering the blueberries entirely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After baking, let your bread cool entirely, then slice it up and enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Healthy Blueberry Bread has juicy blueberries throughout with hints of cinnamon and maple syrup, for a blueberry pie feel. <\/strong>It’s DELICIOUS! And a must-make while blueberries are in season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If this Healthy Blueberry Bread doesn’t scream Summer breakfast, I don’t know what does. Baking with berries is one of my favorite things to do during the Summer. The flavor is out of this world!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you try it, let me know what you think!<\/strong> Does it remind you of Blueberry Pie too? Find me on Instagram<\/a> and tag me in your picture, and\/or leave a comment and rating below. I love to hear from ya’ll!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
