Banana Bread
Ingredients
1 stick softened butter
1 c. sugar
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup mashed very ripe bananas
1/2 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-by-5-by-3-inch loaf pan; set aside. In an electric mixer, cream butter and sugar. Add eggs and beat until smooth.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Add to the butter mixture and mix until just combined. Add bananas, sour cream, and vanilla; mix to combine. Stir in nuts and pour into prepared pan.
Step 3
Bake until a cake tester inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 1 hour 10 minutes. Let rest in pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a rack to cool.
My grandma always liked to put a “dollup” of sour cream into her baked goods, she believed it kept the bread fresh and gave it a better texture.
Enjoy!

PEACH COBBLER
Ingredients:
5 peaches , peeled, cored and sliced (about 4 cups)
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 Tablespoon lemon juice
For the Cobbler batter:
6 Tablespoons of unsalted butter
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
DIRECTIONS:
- Add the sliced peaches, sugar and salt to a saucepan – Cook on medium heat for just a few minutes, until the sugar is dissolved.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Slice butter into pieces and arrange them on the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish. Place the pan in the oven while it preheats, to allow the butter to melt. Once melted, remove the pan from the oven.
- In a large bowl mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the milk, just until combined. Pour the mixture into the pan, over the melted butter and smooth it into an even layer.
- Pour the peaches over the top of the batter. Sprinkle cinnamon and nutmeg over the top of the peaches.
- Bake at 350 for approximately 40 minutes until golden brown.
I think cobbler tastes best when it is served warm and with a generous scoop of vanilla bean ice-cream on top.
Enjoy!
