Great banana bread. Sour Cream really makes it. Made for AZ recipe swap.

Thanks Mickey for a great banana bread recipe. I loved that fact of using sourcream to make it truly delish~and moist. Made for RecipeTag 08.

I made as directed except that I did not have sour cream so I substituted plain yogurt. I used a 20ml tbsp (American measure) instead of the Australian 15ml, the mixture was fairly wet and took much longer than 20 - 30 minutes; I cooked it for an hour and put foil on top after about 30 minutes so that the top wouldn't burn. I also added the 1/2 cup choc chips. The final result is a very tasty and moist cake. The recipe did not say what size pan to cook it in but it was a lot of mixture so I baked it in a square 7" pan. If I make the loaf again I will try two loaf pans as I think it will cook faster. Given there are so many Banana Breads I would like to try a few more before making this again.
