Grandma's Banana Bread Recipe Is the Only Banana Bread Recipe You Need
I may be biased because I grew up on my grandma's delectable banana bread, but I promise this will be the best and only banana bread recipe you will ever need. Ever. It only takes about 15-30 to prepare and a little over an hour to bake. It usually takes me longer if you include my dancing in the kitchen and eating chocolate chips as I go.
The secret ingredient that my grandma uses is sour cream. I know what you're thinking: WTF sour cream in a sweet, delicious banana bread?! Trust me on this one, you won't regret it. Also, check out this delicious recipe for vegan banana bread.
The key to the recipe is using VERY over-ripe bananas (the mushy ones with the black dots all over them). They might look unappetizing for your morning cereal topping, but the extra ripe bananas add awesome flavor, color, and texture that can't be beat.
