This is the best banana bread I have ever had!! It is so moist, I believe it is due to the over ripe bananas and the sour cream. You must try it!!!

I made this with some frozen bananas: I defrosted the 2 bananas in the microwave-then I mixed this all up in the kitchenaid-I used a glass pyrex loaf pan and I baked it for 60 minutes. I was sure to check my oven thermometer because my oven is off temperature alot of the time( its an old oven)-and I recommend that anyone who had trouble with this recipe make sure that their oven is really 350 degrees! Also I had sprayed the pan with nonstick first so that I could cool the bread out of the pan-The banana bread came out wonderful! Thanks Polly.

    MMMM---very good banana bread!!! I added 1/2 tsp of banana flavoring as suggeted by a previous reviewer, but it really did not require it. Thanks for sharing this recipe.

    Great recipe, polly. On my next batch though, I'm going to add more banana and a smidgen of banana extract for a little more distinct banana flavour. I made them as muffins and they were done after about 45 minutes. I took about 1/2 of them, along with a stick of butter, to work and left them by the coffee maker. They were gone within an hour.
