1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar, can sub light brown

3 large very ripe bananas, coarsely mashed

1 cup chopped pecans

3 cups frozen blueberries
Instructions
In large bowl, mix all ingredients on medium speed except blueberries for about 30 seconds. Just until all is mixed. (*I peel the bananas and add them to the mixing bowl by squeezing and squishing them through my fingers to mash. They stay in small chunks that way and don't get over mashed and mixed.)Fold in frozen berries.Pour into 2 greased 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 x 2 1/2 loaf pans that have been greased on the bottoms only. Bake in 350º oven for 55-60 minutes, until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.Cool slightly, loosen sides by running a knife around the sides of pan, turn out onto rack to cool. When cool, wrap tightly with plastic wrap, and keep refrigerated.Best the next day! Serve with real butter if desired.
