Definitely a denser bread, this blueberry banana oat bread has a more normal texture than most Trim Healthy Mama baked goods. It’s more of a sweet bread, and each bite has a pop of delicious blueberry.
A Trim Healthy Mama E fuel, made with healthy carbs, this bread would make a great snack or breakfast, with protein added on the side.
Have bananas to use up but missing an ingredient for this blueberry banana oat bread? These THM XO banana nut muffins have NO special ingredients, and are quick, easy, and delicious!
Blueberry Banana Oat Bread Special Ingredients
There’s only one ingredient in this bread that you probably cannot find at your local supermarket, and that’s Trim Healthy Mama baking blend (something most THM’s have on hand). You always have the option to mix up your own, though, something I usually do, as well.
Pre-dried orange zest (spice aisle) might be harder to locate, but you can always zest a fresh orange for a brighter pop of flavor, and eat the fruit. Or just leave it out entirely.

The oats in this recipe are divided to provide better texture for the blueberry banana oat bread. The first set of oats are finely ground (a blender or Ninja food chopper work great) and the second set remain whole.
Please note that grinding the oats is an important step, not to be skipped for best results. If using the Ninja chopper, I used the smaller set.
