Banana Chocolate Chip Sour Cream Bread
Banana bread is a quick bread (simple to make) and does provide nutrients. Just remember to eat in moderation due to the amount of added sugar.
Ingredients:
Oil and flour to coat loaf pan
1/3 cup canola oil
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
2 eggs
6 medium bananas, ripe (larger brown spots), mashed
1 cup light sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
2 cups flour
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 300 F. Oil and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan, set aside.
- In a mixer, cream butter, white and brown sugar. Mix in eggs, mashed bananas, sour cream, vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg. Add baking soda and flour. Stir in chocolate chips. Do not over mix.
- Pour batter into loaf pan. Bake for 60-75 minutes. Check for doneness. A toothpick should come out clean.
- Cool in pan for 10 minutes. Use a knife go around the loaf to loosen it from the sides. Gently tip upside down onto a cooling rack. Let cool completely (about 1 hour). Wrap in plastic or foil wrap and cool in the refrigerator for 1 hour. This helps prevent the bread from falling apart. Cut into 1/2-inch slices.
