Stop searching right now for your go-to banana bread recipe; because this is it. It's so good even
Katie blogged about it and gave it rave reviews! My mom has been making this bread for as long as I can remember and I started making it with her years ago. With three bananas in one loaf and the extra special ingredient of sour cream added in there; this bread is super-moist and extremely delicious.
Make sure you use OVER-ripe bananas. I'm talking like no more yellow skin there, just brown. They will be much easier to mash up and add to the flavor of the bread. (I just slice the bananas into a bowl and mash them with a fork.) I have also made this into three mini-loaves, which bake for about a half an hour. Enjoy!
