Sour Cream Banana Bread Loaf Recipe
Ingredients:
* 2 large ripe bananas, mashed
* 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
* 1 tsp baking powder
* 1/2 tsp baking soda
* 1/2 tsp salt
* 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
* 1/2 cup granulated sugar
* 1/2 cup sour cream
* 2 large eggs
* 1 tsp vanilla extract
* 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
* Confectioners' sugar (optional)
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan and set it aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. In another bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Add the mashed bananas, sour cream, eggs, and vanilla extract to the butter mixture. Mix until well combined.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
6. If using walnuts, fold them into the batter with a rubber spatula.
7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
8. Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
9. Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
10. Transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely.

Variations:
* Add chocolate chips for a sweet and indulgent treat

* Use brown sugar instead of granulated for a richer flavor
* Add a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg for extra spice
* Make muffins instead of a loaf for a quicker breakfast option
* Substitute chopped pecans or hazelnuts for the walnuts for a different texture and flavor
Tips:
* Make sure to use very ripe bananas for the best flavor.
* Don't overmix the batter, as this can lead to a dense bread.
* Let the bread cool completely before slicing to ensure the best texture.
