If you’ve never made a blueberry quick bread recipe before, you’re going to absolutely love it!

This blueberry quick bread is slightly sweet and perfectly soft and moist. It’s delicious on its own, or paired with yogurt or nut butter!

Plus, isn’t it so cool to sneak fruits AND veggies into a quick bread recipe?

Not that you have to be doing that, but when you need healthy snacks for picky toddlers, every bit help

This blueberry sweetpotato quick bread recipe is great for any of your fall gatherings and holidays, or just a back to school snack!

This is certainly one of my favorite healthy Thanksgiving snacks!

Making this healthy blueberry quick bread was actually quite the dreamy challenge for me because I love sweetpotatoes and blueberries together – point in case, this sweetpotato oatmeal bake is a delight.

I’ve written about them both as recovery foods after a workout, but also, just as necessities to keep on hand. 

I buy the large bag of frozen blueberries from Costco and use them as toppings on oatmeal, yogurt, salads and the best greek yogurt smoothies.

Why You’ll Love This Blueberry Quick Bread Recipe

• Full of antioxidants – Having BOTH wild blueberries and sweetpotatoes in one recipe makes this blueberry quick bread bursting with antioxidants, which can help manage oxidants in the body. In terms of wild blueberries, they have double the antioxidant capacity of larger cultivated blueberries, as well as more manganese, fiber and less sugar.
• Ready in under an hour – There’s no need to wait for the yeast to rise – this blueberry bread loaf recipe is ready in under an hour, makes the kitchen smell great, and offers a Vitamin-C and fiber-rich snack.
• Great snack or breakfast – We absolutely love a piece of this blueberry quick bread recipe for breakfast slathered with some peanut butter or paired with a smoothie!
• Easy to freeze – Any quick breads or muffins that can be frozen for later are some of my favorite snack items – make the most of your time and bake two loaves at once! You can freeze individual slices in stasher bags, or freeze the whole loaf (I recommend cutting it beforehand because once it’s frozen it will be difficult to cut into slices) in a freezer-safe ziplock bag.

I’ve been wanting to incorporate sweetpotatoes into bread for a long time. I think I thought it up on a long run, actually, where I was of course, thinking about carbs and refueling.

Sweet potatoes are very similar to pumpkin, and who doesn’t love pumpkin bread?

With the cooler weather, it’s almost a necessity to have a warmed slice of this healthy sweetpotaot bread recipe, slathered with butter, cranberry sauce or even peanut butter.

How To Make Blueberry Quick Bread

First, you’ll preheat the oven to 350 and grease your 9×5 inch loaf pan. 

Add your wet ingredients (egg, sweetpotato, coconut oil, greek yogurt, maple syrup) to a medium mixing bowl.

Add your dry ingredients to a separate large mixing bowl (flour, oat flour, sugar, cinnamon, salt, baking powder and baking powder). 

Mix the dry into the wet ingredients until a thick batter is formed. And then, bake for 45-50 minutes!

This sweetpotato blueberry bread is healthy, perfectly moist, and flavorful and is a great way to sneak extra fiber in for the kiddos.

You can cut them up in kiddie size portions and throw them in lunch boxes or pack them for before/after sports games and practices. 

To store, let it cool completely and then store in an airtight container on the counter for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months!
