Blue Ribbon Banana Bread

This recipe comes from a collection series called Favorite Recipes of America, which my mother used regularly. I am always disappointed by the taste of banana bread, unless it is this recipe. And it is best the second day.

1 c. sugar
1/2 c. soft butter
2 eggs, beaten
2 c. flour
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
3 tsp. sour cream or buttermilk
3 mashed ripe bananas
1 c. nuts, chopped (optional)

Cream the sugar and butter. Add the eggs. Add dry ingredients. Add the bananas. Makes 2-3 loaves. Bake for 30-40 minutes (until it passes the toothpick test) at 350 degrees.
