Ingredients
  

For the Bread
  • 1 large Egg Binds the ingredients and adds moisture.
  • 1 cup Light Brown Sugar Adds sweetness and moisture; packed for best results.
  • 1/3 cup Canola or Vegetable Oil Provides fat for richness and moisture; a neutral-flavored oil works best.
  • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar Sweetens the bread; adjust according to preference.
  • 1/2 cup Sour Cream (or Greek Yogurt) Contributes to the bread’s moist texture; adds a slight tang.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Enhances the sweetness and overall flavor profile.
  • 1 1/2 cups All-Purpose Flour Serves as the base for the bread's structure; toss blueberries in extra flour before adding.
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder Helps the bread rise, giving it a light texture.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda Additional leavening agent, balancing the acidity from the sour cream.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt Enhances flavor; adjust to taste.
  • 2 medium Mashed Ripe Bananas Primary flavor, providing sweetness and moisture; aim for very ripe bananas.
  • 1 cup Coarsely Grated Zucchini Keeps the bread moist without imparting flavor; do not pack tightly in the cup.
  • 1 cup Fresh Blueberries Adds bursts of flavor; use fresh for best results; if using frozen, do not thaw and increase baking time.
