You can turn it into a banana nut bread recipe by simply adding about a cup of gourmet black walnuts, which make the tastiest addition over traditional walnuts. This recipe came from a bed and breakfast in the California mountains, and the secret to its moistness comes from sour cream! It’s an old fashioned banana bread that you can easily picture coming from your grandma’s kitchen. Your friends will beg you for this recipe for banana bread. Enjoy, and we hope you enjoy our easy recipes!

In a mixing bowl, cream softened butter with the sugar and salt. Mix in eggs, vanilla and sour cream. Mix until just blended. Add flour mix to the batter. When making banana bread, use ripe soft bananas. Mash into bowl and add into mixture. Spray a Bundt pan with cooking spray or grease with fresh butter. Pour batter into pan. Bake in preheated 350 F for 1 hour. If a toothpick comes out clean, its done. Sour cream is the secret ingredient to this banana breads moist texture.

  7. Hey, It came out like a mashed banana loaf and not at all like a bread. Is that just too much banans? I couldn’t slice it I had to use a spoon :)

  8. The is the most gorgeous cake i’ve ever baked!! Absolutely delicious.. I halved the recipe as i had only 3 small bananas but still added 4 Tbsp of sour cream (sour cream had expired so wanted to finish it up!). And it only took about 35 mins in the oven – good thing i checked half way through! The cake is a new family favourite now.. Thank you so much chef Jason Hill for sharing :)

    Did you pull it out of the oven too soon?

  11. @Puppcake666 Not sure what happened for you. Maybe an oven issue? I don’t know anyone else who has had any issues like that.

  12. Delicious, and moist! I used lowfat sour cream, and it was still excellent!!

  13. This is THE BEST banana bread that I have ever tasted! I did need to bake it for about twenty minutes longer than the recipe calls for… I simply kept testing it until the knife came out clean. I even made a gluten free version for some friends and it came out fabulously as well :-) THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  14. Will this recipe work with muffin pans ? It’s so much easier that way especially when you share with friends. Any suggestions?

    Comment by johnbgroovy — May 24, 2010 @ 12:47 am

  15. @johnbgroovy Yes, you can. Just cut the baking time down. You’ll have to keep a watch on it.

  16. @TempleGreen Very cool! How did you alter it for the gluten free recipe?

    Comment by ChefTips — May 24, 2010 @ 10:30 am

  17. @ ChefTips I had help from a gluten free friend. The mix is a bit complicated… she used 1/2 cup sorghum flour, 2/3 cup Teff and 2/3 cup “Bette’s Featherlight Flour Blend” from Authentic Foods…

    The Featherlight mix is:
    1 part rice flour
    1 part tapioca
    1 part cornstarch
    and 1 tsp potato flour per cup of mix…

    And it was delicious ;-)

  18. Thanks for the previous response to my last question, but I have just one more!
    I find that most banana bread is too sweet, am I able to cut down the sugar to 1 cup instead of 1.5 cups of sugar ?

  22. Just made some yesterday using muffin pans and they turned out awesome! Moist and yummy as you mentioned I had some remaining batter left to make a couple small loaves but unfortunately the loaves flattened out after taking it out of the oven, not sure why that might of happened but it’s still edible. Thanks for sharing this !
