Easy Banana Bread (No Mixer!)
Description
Easy Banana Bread (No Mixer!) uses mashed ripe bananas blended into a mixture of melted butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and sour cream to create a smooth batter. The addition of sour cream helps keep the bread moist and tender after baking. Dry ingredients like flour, baking soda, and salt are whisked in last to avoid overmixing. Without the use of a mixer, this recipe relies on simple whisking and folding techniques.
The bread bakes in a 9x5-inch loaf pan for about an hour, developing a golden crust while the inside remains soft and flavorful. This loaf offers a good balance of sweetness complemented by the warm vanilla and banana flavors. It can be enjoyed fresh or toasted with butter.
Because the recipe uses basic pantry ingredients and no special equipment, it's practical for home bakers of all levels looking to use ripe bananas. The loaf also freezes well if sliced after cooling, which allows for easy storage and future servings.
