Blueberry, Lemon, Banana Bread with Cream Cheese Glaze

This recipe comes from the same friend who gave me the Lime Coconut Banana Bread recipe. This is so good! All the right flavors to spice up ordinary banana bread! So don't throw away those brown bananas! I used frozen blueberries for mine but fresh is always better. I would recommend using a basic cream cheese frosting for this instead of the glaze because it is easier to slice and eat plus it will give you a bigger taste! Just add the lemon juice to it!


Bread:
2 C flour
3/4 t baking soda
1/2 t salt
1 C sugar
1/4 C butter, softened
1 C bananas, mashed
2 eggs
1/3 C reduced- fat sour cream
1 t vanilla
1 C blueberries
1 T grated lemon rind


Glaze:
1/4 C softened, light cream cheese
3 T powdered sugar
1 T lemon juice
2 t water

350 1 Hour
Mix butter and sugar, add eggs, vanilla, banana, zest, sour cream. Mix dry ingred. and add to wet. Gently fold in blueberries. Spray bread pan with Pam. After bread is baked, cool then glaze.
