- 1/2 cup butter softened
- 1 cup white sugar
- 2 eggs beaten
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup walnuts chopped
- 3 overripe bananas mashed
Preheat the oven to 350° F (175° C). Prepare a 9x5 loaf pan by greasing and flouring it.
In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs and vanilla and mix well.
Combine the flour, baking soda and salt in a bowl and stir together well before stirring it into the butter mixture by hand with a wooden spoon. Do not overmix.
Fold in the sour cream, walnuts and banana, being careful not to overmix.
Pour into the loaf pan and spread evenly on top.
Bake at 350° F for 1 hour on the middle rack, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Allow to cool before slicing.
