Cook Time: 1 hour 15 minutes
Yield: 3 large loaves
Rating: 9/10
Cinnamon-Sugar mix:
1/4 c white sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
Bread:
3/4 c butter, softened
3 c white sugar
3 eggs
5-6 very ripe bananas, mashed
16 oz sour cream
2 tsp vanilla
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
3 tsp baking soda
4 1/2 c flour
Walnuts, chopped (optional)
Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Grease three large loaf pans (I use butter-flavored Crisco).
In a small bowl, create cinnamon-sugar mix. Sprinkle half of this mixture into the bottom of the pans. This makes a sweet and lightly crunchy crust on the bread. Yum!
Cream together the butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Add bananas and sour cream.
In a separate bowl, combine flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Use a whisk to avoid flour clumps in your bread.
Combine wet and dry ingredients and divide into prepared loaf pans. Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon-sugar mixture on top of the batter. Bake for one hour and 15 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Allow to cool slightly in pans and then turn out onto cooling racks.
