Banana Bread

When life gives you  bananas, make banana bread.

banana bread

1 cup Sugar.

1 stick of unsalted butter.

2 eggs.

1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

1/2 cup of sour cream.

1 cup of mashed bananas (2 large or 3 small bananas)

1 1/2 cups of flour.

1 tsp of salt.

1 tsp of baking soda.

1/2 cups of chopped walnuts.

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-by-5-by-3-inch loaf pan; set aside. In an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, and beat to incorporate.

  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Add to the butter mixture, and mix until just combined. Add bananas, sour cream, and vanilla; mix to combine. Stir in nuts, and pour into prepared pan.

  3. Bake until a cake tester inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 1 hour 10 minutes. Let rest in pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a rack to cool.
