    Before you add the blueberries to the batter, you will want to mix them in a bowl with about a tablespoon of flour. This will prevent the berries from sinking in the batter. Fold 1 ¼ Cup of blueberries into the batter and save ¼ cup of blueberries for the next step.

      I'm with your kids! I love this way more than a simple plain banana bread, and that's saying a lot, cos we have banana bread almost weekly in our home. 🙂
