Father’s Day is coming soon friends! And one of my favorite traditions is to make my favorite Sour Cream Banana Bread and take it to the men in me and my kiddos lives that we love: my husband, Grandpa’s, neighbors, etc!
This recipe is beyond good and everyone loves it! It’s pretty much impossible to mess up too! My sister gave me this recipe years ago and it or my Banana Bars have been my go-to when I’m craving anything banana!
INGREDIENTS:
- 6 Tbsp Butter, softened
- ½ C. Brown Sugar
- ½ C. Sugar
- 3-4 ripe bananas (mashed)
- 1 C Sour Cream
- 1 tsp Cinnamon
- 1 tsp Vanilla
- 2 Eggs
- ¼ tsp Salt
- 2 tsp Baking Soda
- 2 ¼ C. Flour
- ½-1 C Walnuts (chopped)
DIRECTIONS:
Cream together the butter, brown sugar and sugar. If you’d prefer to, you can also replace the brown sugar and sugar with 1 tsp Stevia). Then add the bananas, sour cream, cinnamon and vanilla and mix together. Add the eggs and combine. In a separate bowl combine the salt, baking soda and flour. Mix together and then add to the banana bread mixture. Once combined, fold in the nuts! Don’t over mix!
Take the banana bread mixture and divide between two greased bread pans and bake for 50-60 minutes at 300 degrees! To make sure it’s cooked, insert a toothpick into the banana bread and make sure it comes out clean!
If you’re going to give the banana bread as a gift, I always love to package it a little special too! Even just by grabbing some simple Kraft Paper, folding it around the Banana Bread and then adding a little ribbon or string makes all the difference in the world!
