Dinner dishes are done, everyone is scattered, the hum of the oven fan is buzzing in the background, the house smells so lovely. Now, sitting quietly on my kitchen stool, I discover there are a few thoughts that come to mind when it comes to banana bread. Life has moved toward tender and lovely, as our family has changed and the kids have grown. ## How do you make banana bread moist? - We love to add sour cream. - Do not overbake the banana bread. - Use ripe bananans\! ### ![slices of sour cream banana bread](data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%20width='600'%20height='907'%20viewBox='0%200%20600%20907'%3E%3C/svg%3E) ![slices of sour cream banana bread](https://reluctantentertainer.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/BB20.jpg) ## Do you have to put banana bread in fridge? Nope, no need to refrigerate the Banana Bread, but it’s best if you you can keep it in an airtight container in a cool place. We also wrap the bread in plastic wrap, then a layer of foil, and we freeze the bread. You never know when you’ll need it :) ![one slice - Sour Cream Banana Bread Banana Bread Giving LIST](data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%20width='600'%20height='900'%20viewBox='0%200%20600%20900'%3E%3C/svg%3E) ![one slice - Sour Cream Banana Bread Banana Bread Giving LIST](https://reluctantentertainer.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/BB1.jpg) Feeling the moment, open to what life hands me, feeling my feelings (even the painful ones), sensing the changes ahead in our life, doing new things, meeting new people, opening our lives to new people, sometimes moving on from past relationships—nothing seems to stay the same. But there is one thing that hasn’t changed over the years. Banana bread–oh, the comfort it brings–and my “banana bread list.” BEST and beloved bread in our home over the years, I’d have to say, is banana bread. So much, that I’ve made a Banana Bread Giving List. ![slicing a loaf of sour cream banana bread](data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%20width='600'%20height='900'%20viewBox='0%200%20600%20900'%3E%3C/svg%3E) ![slicing a loaf of sour cream banana bread](https://reluctantentertainer.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/bread-banana-600x900.jpeg) ## How to bake banana bread I love to make this recipe in my favorite [ceramic loaf pan](https://amzn.to/32mbtRQ). I slice it warm with this [serrated knife](https://amzn.to/3itfYzU) and add a hunk of butter. How to bake banana bread to perfection really depends on the size of your pan. You can bake this recipe in 1 loaf (which will take longer) or smaller loaves (which take less time). Always check the bread in the middle with a toothpick to see if the loaf is done baking, before removing from the oven. If the batter sticks to the toothpick, bake a little longer. ![Sour Cream Banana Bread wrapped in plastic wrap with a jar of jam](data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%20width='600'%20height='800'%20viewBox='0%200%20600%20800'%3E%3C/svg%3E) ![Sour Cream Banana Bread wrapped in plastic wrap with a jar of jam](https://reluctantentertainer.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/BB15.jpg) ## Sour Cream Banana Bread Everyone loves it — perfect for a snack, to give away to a friend, neighbor, or teacher, to send in a care package, whip out of the freezer and serve for out-of-town guests at breakfast. The banana bread list goes on and on. Add in sour cream? It’s even moister, more flavorful, and delicious! You can even substitute the sour cream with Greek yogurt. So moist and sweet, this yummy recipe goes hand in hand with memories of years past. Pulling the same loaves from the oven, little kids underfoot. Activity and lots of chitter-chatter, chins up against the countertop just waiting for that first bite.
