I have been spending a lot more time at home lately, which has lead to a baking obsession. I have been baking everything from cupcakes, to cookies, to breads.

So when there are ripe bananas sitting on your counter top and you are in the mood to bake, banana bread is the logical next step.

We love baked goods made with bananas. I have a recipe for Cake Mix Banana Bread, which is amazing, and also Cinnamon Swirl Banana Muffins and Banana Cream Muffins.

But I want to share this Sour Cream Banana Bread recipe as well, because it is absolutely amazing! 

This recipe is perfectly moist and pretty much melts in your mouth with every bite.
