HAWAIIAN BREAD

HAWAIIAN BREAD

This came from Heather Chapple. Super, super yummy! Everyone liked. I used one big loaf pan, Abagail's small pan and 12 small muffins.

1 Stick of Butter (1/2 Cup) softened---let it get room temperature naturally. DO NOT put in the microwave as this will make your bread crumbly.

1 1/3 Cups Sugar

2 eggs

1 tsp. vanilla

2 Cups flour

1 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. baking powder

¾ tsp. salt

4 ripe bananas

1 cup sour cream

1 cup chopped nuts---I use walnuts

1 cup (or less) semi-sweet chocolate chips

Mix softened butter and add sugar, a little at a time. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Add vanilla, mashed bananas, and sour cream. Mix well. Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt: add to butter mixture and mix well. Stir in nuts and chocolate chips Pour into 2 lightly greased loaf pans. I don’t have a sifter so I shake the flour in the container first to make sure it is fluffy. Your cup of flour should be lightly packed. (I spooned and leveled)

Bake at 350 for 45 min to 1 hr. edges will start to look dry and toothpick method works great unless you put it in a mound of chocolate.
