Bread (Dessert) - Banana: Sour Cream Banana Bread

A little about categorizing bread. Our system is not scientific by a long shot. We've placed them into table, flat, dessert, and fried. Table bread may include loaves of sandwich-type bread or something designed to serve as a loaf or dinner bun at the table. Flat is generally un-yeasted bread that is flat (duh!). Fried can be pan-fried or deep-fried. Dessert is for delectables such as banana bread. The words dressing and stuffing are interchangeable, depending where you live. Many will contain bread, others may not. This is dizzying.

Bread (Dessert) - Banana: Sour Cream Banana Bread

Post by Chowhound »

The-Best-Sour-Cream-Banana-Bread-1.jpg
½ cup unsalted butter
½ cup light brown sugar
½ cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup mashed ripe banana
½ cup whole milk sour cream

reheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter and line a standard loaf pan with parchment paper, set aside. In an electric mixer, cream butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. Add eggs and beat until combined, scraping down sides of the bowl. Mix in vanilla extract. In a separate bowl combine flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon and whisk together. Add dry mixture to the butter mix and beat just until incorporated. Add in mashed banana and sour cream and beat until combined, scraping down sides of the bowl. Pour into prepared loaf pan and bake for 55-60 minutes or until a wooden toothpick comes out clean from the center and loaf is golden brown. Start checking as early as 50 minutes depending on your oven. Remove from oven and allow to cool 10 minutes in pan before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
