Ingredients
- 3 bananas ripe, mashed
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ⅓ cup butter unsalted, softened
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon ground
- ¼ cup sour cream
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350℉. Generously grease a loaf pan or spray it with cooking spray. I used a 12x4.5 inch loaf pan, but a regular size loaf pan will work as well.
- In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas with either a fork or a potato masher.
- Add the rest of the ingredients together and mix with a whisk. Use a spatula to scrape down the sides if needed.
- Transfer the pan to the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes to one hour, or until you insert a toothpick in the center and it comes out clean.
- Cool for a few minutes in the pan, then let it come to room temperature on a cooling rack. Cut into slices and serve.

Notes
- Use very ripe bananas for the best flavor and texture. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more moist your bread will be.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough and dense bread. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Add mix-ins like nuts, chocolate chips, or dried fruits for added texture and flavor.
- Let the bread cool completely before slicing. Cutting into a hot loaf can cause it to crumble or fall apart.
- Store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
