Aunt Betty's Blu'Bana Bread

Here is the Blu'Bana Bread recipe that I promised.  I made some substitutions from the original and will note those and my tips too!  It was wonderful!

1 pt fresh or frozen Blueberries
4 cups Flour, divided (I used whole wheat flour)
1 cup softened Butter (I used 1/2 C butter and 1/2 C unrefined coconut oil if you do this make sure that your blueberries and bananas are thawed and room temperature or the coconut oil will harden and you will have to heat the batter to get it to combine!)
2 cups Sugar
4 Eggs
5 ripe Bananas, mashed
2 teaspoons Vanilla
1 Tablespoon Allspice
2 teaspoons Baking Soda
1 teaspoon Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoon Salt

Grease and flour 2 9x5 loaf pans.
Toss Blueberries with 2 T. flour and set aside
In large mixing bowl, with electric mixer at medium speed, cream butter and sugar until fluffy.
Add eggs, bananas and vanilla; beat at low speed until blended.
Add all the dry ingrediants and mix
Fold in Blueberries
Pour batter into pans
Bake 55-60 minutes until center comes clean at 325 degrees
Cool 10 minutes
Remove from pans and cool at least 20 minutes to serve warm.
