Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to bake at 350 °F for conventional or 325 °F for convection.
  • Set aside for step 6:
    2 oz bread flour for 50 servings.
    4 oz bread flour for 100 servings.
  • Combine flour, oats, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a commercial mixer (batch as needed). Using a paddle attachment, mix on low speed for 1 minute. Leave dry ingredients in mixer. Set aside for step 5.
  • Combine bananas, eggs, sugar, oil, and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl. Stir well until the eggs are incorporated.
  • Add the banana mixture to the dry ingredients and mix on medium-low speed just until the dry ingredients are incorporated. Do not overmix.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, coat blueberries with remaining flour. Fold blueberries into the batter. Stir gently.
  • Pour 2 qt (about 3 lbs 12 oz) batter into a half steam table pan (12" x 10" x 2 1/2") lightly coated with pan-release spray.
    For 50 servings, use 2 pans.
    For 100 servings, use 4 pans.

    Conventional oven: 350 °F for 45 minutes.
    Convection oven: 325 °F for 40 minutes.
  • Portion: Cut each pan 5 x 5 (25 pieces per pan). Serve 1 piece (2" x 3 ¾").
