Banana Bread

• Baking spray with flour

• ¾ cup all-purpose flour plus 1 teaspoon, divided

• ¾ cup whole-wheat flour

• 1 tsp baking soda

• ½ tsp baking powder

• ½ tsp ground cinnamon

• ½ tsp salt

• ¼ tsp ground ginger

• 2 large eggs, at room temperature

• 1 cup mashed very ripe banana (from 3 medium)

• ⅓ cup packed light brown sugar

• 5 tbsp unsalted butter, melted

• ¼ cup sour cream, at room temperature

• 1½ tsp vanilla extract

• 1 tsp grated lemon zest

• 1 cup fresh blueberries

Glaze

• 1½ tbsp confectioners’ sugar

• ½ tsp lemon juice (from 1 small lemon)

• ¼ tsp sour cream, at room temperature

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat an 8½-by-4½ inch loaf pan with baking spray.

Whisk ¾ cup all-purpose flour, ¾ cup whole-wheat flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon ginger together in a medium bowl until well combined. In a large bowl, whisk 2 eggs, 1 cup banana, ⅓ cup brown sugar, 5 tablespoons melted butter, ¼ cup sour cream, 1½ teaspoons vanilla and 1 teaspoon lemon zest until well combined. Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture; stir just until nearly combined. Toss 1 cup blueberries and the remaining 1 teaspoon all-purpose flour together in a small bowl; fold the blueberry mixture into the batter just until combined. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan.

Bake until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes. If needed, loosely cover with foil to prevent over-browning. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Remove from the pan and let cool completely on a wire rack, 2 to 3 hours. Transfer to a serving platter.

Prepare glaze:  Stir 1½ tablespoons confectioners’ sugar, ½ teaspoon lemon juice and ¼ teaspoon sour cream together in a small bowl until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled bread before serving.
