Moist and Delicious Banana Bread: Perfect for Any Time!
This delightful banana bread is moist, flavorful, and easy to make! Perfect for breakfast, snacks, or dessert, it’s a delicious way to use up ripe bananas.
Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups mashed ripe bananas (about 4-5 bananas)
1/2 cup sour cream
1 cup chopped walnuts or chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions:
1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3. Prepare the Batter:
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
4. Mix in Bananas and Sour Cream:
Add the mashed bananas and sour cream to the mixture, stirring until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
5. Add Mix-ins (Optional):
If desired, fold in the chopped walnuts or chocolate chips.
6. Bake:
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean. If the bread starts to brown too quickly, cover it loosely with aluminum foil for the last 15 minutes of baking.
7. Cool and Serve:
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
