Jason Hill of Chef Tips shows you how to make a moist banana bread recipe that is sure to please your entire family!

This easy banana bread recipe makes a very moist banana bread.

You can turn it into a banana nut bread recipe by simply adding about a cup of gourmet black walnuts, which make the tastiest addition over traditional walnuts.

This recipe came from a bed and breakfast in the California mountains, and the secret to its moistness comes from sour cream!

It's an old fashioned banana bread that you can easily picture coming from your grandma's kitchen.

Your friends will beg you for this recipe for banana bread.

Enjoy, and we hope you enjoy our easy recipes! Thanks for Tubing In

Ingredients:
Four large ripe bananas (or six small)
2 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup butter
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 tsp salt
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
4 tablespoons sour cream

Mix dry ingredients together and sift. In a mixing bowl, cream softened butter with the sugar and salt. Mix in eggs, vanilla and sour cream. Mix until just blended.

Add flour mix to the batter. When making banana bread, use ripe soft bananas. Mash into bowl and add into mixture.

Spray a Bundt pan with cooking spray or grease with fresh butter. Pour batter into pan. Bake in preheated 350 F for 1 hour. If a toothpick comes out clean, its done.

Sour cream is the secret ingredient to this banana breads moist texture.

My wife and I have tried several banana bread recipes through the years and this is definitely our favorite. Give it a try. Youll be glad you did!

    So glad you tried the recipe and thanks for your post!

  • I just got a KitchenAid mixer for Christmas, so I decided to give your banana bread a try. Now, keep in mind, I'm just some dude from Boston that's never cooked a thing in his life. After following your recipe to the tee, this banana bread came out AWESOME!!! I've been looking to make something homemade to bring to family events and parties, and I think I've found that perfect thing with your banana bread! Thanks for the recipe!

  • Thanks a bundle ChefTips, this recipe really helped! Instead of using all purpose flour, I grinded oats(whole grains are always more superior to enriched flours, health wise)(can use whole wheat). And instead of all butter, I also used mostly Neufchatel Cheese (similar to cream cheese) instead of all butter. Both (Neufchatel Cheese and grains) I have noticed added an extra richness and moistness to my baked goods! Thanks again Chef!
