Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup mashed ripe bananas
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan. Beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  2. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in bananas, sour cream, and vanilla.
  3. Whisk flour, baking soda, and salt together. Fold into the wet mixture just until incorporated.
  4. Pour batter into the pan, smooth the top, and bake 55 to 60 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
  5. Cool in the pan 10 minutes, then turn out onto a rack and cool completely before slicing.

Notes

The bread tastes even better the next day. Wrap it tightly and store at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for longer. If the top darkens too much during baking, tent it loosely with foil.
