Banana Bread

This is a family favorite! I make this into three loaves, but it is easily halved to make one large loaf.

Banana Bread (makes 3 med. loaves)

  • 1/2 pound (2sticks) unsalted butter
  • 2C sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 3C flour
  • 2 t baking soda
  • 2 t salt
  • 2C mashed banana (about 5)
  • 1C sour cream
  • 2 t vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 350 F, butter 3 8×4 loaf pans (I use the aluminum ones that come in a 3-pack from the store)

Cream butter and sugar until light. Add eggs beating well. 

Sift dry ingredients together and combine with butter mix and blend well. Add bananas, sour cream, vanilla and stir until combined. 

Pour into pans and bake for 50-55 minutes, until tester comes out clean. Cool on rack and enjoy!!
