Ingredients
– 1/2 cup butter
– 1/2 cup white sugar
– 1/2 cup brown sugar
– 2 eggs
– 3 tablespoons sour cream
– 1-2 mashed bananas
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 teaspoon baking powder
– 1 teaspoon baking soda
– 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 2 apples, cored and chopped
– 1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
1-First: preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a bread pan to prevent sticking. Cream together the butter and sugars until smooth, then beat in the eggs for a creamy mixture. Stir in the sour cream, mashed bananas, and vanilla extract to add moisture and flavor.
2-Next: in a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add these dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing gently to avoid overworking the batter. Fold in the chopped apples and nuts if you’re using them for extra texture.
3-Spoon: the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for about 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the bread cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring it to a rack to cool completely. This step ensures the bread stays moist and easy to slice.
