Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan generously with butter or non-stick spray.
- Whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon in a medium bowl.
- Cream together ½ cup of unsalted butter and ¾ cup of granulated sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
- Add 2 large eggs, 2 mashed ripe bananas, ½ cup of plain Greek yogurt, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract into the creamed mixture and combine.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
- Gently fold in 1 cup of fresh blueberries using a spatula.
- In a small bowl, mix ¼ cup of granulated sugar with 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon to create the cinnamon swirl mixture.
- Spoon half of the banana bread batter into the prepared loaf pan, sprinkle half of the cinnamon-sugar mixture, and add the remaining batter.
- Gently swirl through the batter in a figure-eight pattern to create the cinnamon swirl.
- Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
- Allow to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes
Use very ripe bananas for maximum sweetness and moisture. Avoid overmixing the batter for the best texture.
