I've had some very blah banana breads, but this one is wonderful. My husband found this one to use one day when we had a bunch of bananas that weren't getting any younger. My co-workers loved it recently when I made it for a breakfast at work. This is from a cookbook called America's Best Recipes . In the book, the recipe is called Banana, Sour Cream and Walnut Loaf .
Ingredients:
2/3 cup butter, softened
1 1/3 cups sugar
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 1/2 cups bananas, mashed
1/2 cup sour cream
1 cup walnuts, chopped
Directions:
1. Cream butter; gradually add sugar, beating with a mixer at medium speed.
2. Combine flour with baking powder, baking soda, and salt, stirring well.
3. Combine eggs, banana, and sour cream; stir well.
4. Add flour to creamed mixture, alternately with banana mixture, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Mix until blended after each addition; stir in walnuts.
5. Pour batter into greased and floured 9 x 5 x 3-inch loaf pan.
6. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour and 15 minutes or until a wooden pck inserted in center comes out clean. (Shield with aluminum foil to prevent excessive browning.).
7. Let cool completely on a wire rack. Yield 1 loaf.
