Ingredients
- 4 overripe American bananas, mashed
- 1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 2 tablespoons sour cream or plain yogurt
- 2/3 cups brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1/3 cup walnuts
- 2 1/2 tablespoons dark rum
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 °F (180 °C). Mash the bananas, using the back of the spoon or a masher, until mushy.
- Put the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium-sized bowl and, using your hands or a wooden spoon, combine well.
- In a large bowl, mix the melted butter, sour cream (or plain yogurt) and sugar by hand, with a wooden spoon. Beat until blended, then add the eggs one at a time. Mix well.
- Stir in the mashed bananas, walnuts, dark rum and vanilla extract.
- Add the flour mixture, a third at a time, stirring well with the wooden spoon after each batch. Transfer the batter into a 9x5-inch (23cm x 12cm) loaf tin and bake in the middle of the oven for 60 - 75 minutes.
- Insert a toothpick, fine skewer or a cake tester in the center of the banana bread. It should come out clean. Leave in the tin on a rack to cool, about 30 minutes.
- Slice to ten (10) pieces, serve warm.
