    Banana nut bread is a dense bread cake made with ripe bananas. Today's banana nut bread with sour cream is a rich and a moist bread by Martha Stewart. I followed the recipe to dot. It is a perfect bread to serve for breakfast, as a snack or during teatime. If one isn’t calories conscious, this delicious banana nut bread is a must try.

    I am not a banana fan but lately I am loving bakes with bananas, though I still have an aversion to the fruit. For the last week of this bake-a-thon, I have three banana bread cakes and all mouthwatering. Apart from these three breads, banana chocolate chip muffins is another delightful bake with bananas I baked this month.

    The first bread for this week is a banana nut bread with sour cream and butter. Use of both sour cream and butter makes it a rich and delectable bread. I made ½ the recipe which yields 2 mini loaves. Full recipe yields 4 mini loaves or one 9" loaf. Recipe listed below is half the original recipe.

    Total Time: 41 - 46 minutes
    Preparation: 10 - 15 minutes
    Bake Time: 31 minutes
    Yields: 2 (5.75”) mini loaves

    Ingredients:

    • ¼ cup (½ stick ~ 4 tbsp) Butter, at room temperature + more for greasing the pans
    • ½ cup Granulated Sugar
    • 1 Large Egg
    • ¾ cup All-Purpose Flour
    • ½ teaspoon Baking Soda
    • ½ teaspoon Salt
    • ½ cup mashed very Ripe Banana (1 medium sized banana)
    • ¼ cup Sour Cream
    • ½ teaspoon Vanilla Extract
    • ¼ cup chopped Walnuts or Pecans (Martha Stewart suggested pecans, I used walnuts)

    Preparation:

    • Preheat the oven to 350 F.
    • Grease 2 mini loaf pans with butter and keep aside.
    • In a bowl whisk together dry ingredients; flour, baking soda and salt.
    • In another large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy using an electric mixer.
    • Add egg and beat until incorporated.
    • Add dry ingredients and mix until combined.
    • Add mashed banana, sour cream, vanilla extract and mix until combined.
    • Stir in nuts and pour the batter into greased pans.
    • Bake in a preheated oven until a toothpick or a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean. In my oven, the bread were done in 31 minutes. If making double the recipe and using a 9” loaf pan, according to the recipe, bake time is 70 minutes.
    • Let the bread rest in the pan for 10 minutes, remove from the pan and cool on a rack.
    • Once cool, store in an airtight container. The bread was fresh for 2 days at room temperature.

      I remember you saying that you don't like banana, so I was surprised to see the previous muffin. Glad that you are slowly warming up to the fruit. Banana bread looks moist & delicious.
