Sunday Morning Banana Bread

As the weekend rolls around I usually find myself with ripe bananas. What do you do when life gives you ripe bananas? Make banana bread. Here is my go-to recipe that I’ve adapted over the years:
Sunday Morning Banana Bread
Ingredients
- 1 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup + 2 tbsps white sugar
- 2 eggs (room temperature)
- 1/2 cup canola oil
- 3-4 ripe bananas, mashed
- 2 tbsps sour cream
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2/3 cup toasted and chopped nuts (walnuts, pecans, pine nuts – I used pecans this time)
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F and line bottom of a loaf pan with parchment paper

Enjoy!
Sincerely,
