Banana Bread

Ingredients:

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

¼ teaspoon salt

¾ cup brown sugar

¾ cup unsalted butter, softened

2 large eggs

2 ½ cups mashed ripe bananas (about 4-5 bananas)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

½ cup sour cream

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.

Stir in the mashed bananas and vanilla extract until well combined.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it’s okay if there are a few lumps.

Gently fold in the sour cream until evenly incorporated into the batter.

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.

Bake in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.

Allow the banana bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Slice and enjoy your delicious homemade Banana Bread! You can store any leftovers in an airtight container for freshness.
