Cheap Thrills Cuisine: Blueberry Banana Loaf

This Blueberry Banana Loaf has blueberries in it!

Show your children how to make this, and…I’ll take three, please!

That part where it says to wrap in foil and cool overnight in a refrigerator? That helps make the loaf much more moister than it already will be. Then heads up: you’ll be tempted to promptly inhale the whole thing for breakfast. No worries. Grab a different flavor yogurt and pile o’ fruit and make another loaf!
