I won't quite call this one mine. I do remember that I looked at some kind of recipe for a sour cream quick bread, and adapted it for this.
This is a work IN PROGRESS! I'm still not happy with the results. It tastes great, but, because there's just a little to much batter in the pan, it takes a little longer to bake, and the top usually burns a bit. I tried reducing the quantity, but it didn't work. Next time, I'll just split it into two loaves, but, that will affect the baking time.
Sour Cream Banana Bread
Yields: 1 really big loaf
½ c butter
1 c sugar
2 eggs
1 t vanilla extract
1 ½ c flour
1 t baking soda
½ t salt
1 c mashed bananas
½ c nuts, chopped
½ c sour cream or plain yogurt
Preheat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark pans). Grease a loaf pan. Sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt, then set aside. Cream the butter and sugar. Add eggs and vanilla, and mix until well blended. Add dry ingredients; mix until just blended. DO NOT OVERMIX. Mix in bananas, nuts, and sour cream until just blended. Pour into prepared pan. Bake about 1 hour or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
