A delightful twist on classic banana bread featuring the bright flavors of lemon and the sweetness of blueberries, all made effortlessly in your Instant Pot.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs

Instructions

  1. Prepare your batter: In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas, sugar, vegetable oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract. Mix until well-blended.
  2. Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Combine wet and dry: Slowly add the flour mixture to your wet ingredients. Stir gently, being careful not to overmix.
  4. Fold in the blueberries: Gently fold the blueberries into the batter.
  5. Prep your baking pan: Grease a baking pan that fits into the Instant Pot. Pour your batter into the pan.
  6. Instant Pot setup: Pour 1 cup of water into the Instant Pot and place your trivet inside. Set the pan on the trivet.
  7. Seal and cook: Close the lid and set your Instant Pot to cook on high pressure for 50 minutes.
  8. Release carefully: Allow a natural release of pressure for 10 minutes before switching to a quick release.
  9. Cool and slice: Allow your loaf to cool slightly before slicing into it.

Notes

Consider adding a sprinkle of cinnamon or swapping blueberries for blackberries or strawberries for different flavors.
