The Best Blackberry Bread Recipe

blackberry  bread using fresh blackberries

Nothing says summer to me like blackberries. As a little girl, my cousins and I enjoyed picking wild blackberries on our grand parents’ farm every summer. We were supposed to be picking them for our mothers to make jelly or cobbler, but I think we ate more than we picked 🙂

So when the blackberries start to ripen, I either pick them wild off our property or purchase some at a local market. My favorite thing to make with them is my Memama’s Homemade Berry Cobbler. But this year, I decided to try making bread with them.

It’s similar to the process I use to make my homemade banana bread.

Here’s what you need to make The Best Blackberry Bread

  • 1 1/2 cups unrefined all purpose flour
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup almond milk or milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups fresh blackberries
