What keeper recipes have you tried recently? Here are a couple winners I made this week.

REC: Sour Cream Banana Bread

My friends loved it as well. Had it for dinner Sunday with meatballs and also some breaded chicken

tenders. I found that long fussili(sp) pasta and it was a big hit. They all really loved the sauce. very basic, but a very comforting meal.

 
This is very similar to the one that I posted above, and we were

talking about adding chocolate chips to the batter. I never thought about glazine the loaf with chocolate. I am going to have some over ripe bananas soon, so I may have to try both of these recipes.

 
Let me know how you like it... my DH is a TOUGH critic, especially with banana bread and LOVED it

 
I have it in the oven right now, but

I was out of sour cream so I used buttermilk and I put 1/2 cup cinnamon chips (my son isn't a big chocolate fan, but loves cinnamon, hence the substitution) in the batter and I am going with the chocolate glaze. I used my mini-loaf pan.
I will let you know how they turn out.

 
Yum cheezz, great banana bread!

I can't taste the cinnamon chips in it all, but the flavor is really good and I like the texture. I will try it with the sour cream and chocolate chips next time. I am having a slice with my coffee right now.

 
Made this last night and we really liked it. Time for T&T, Ang? It was easy and so tasty

for such a simple sauce. Used Muir Glen chopped tomatoes, and cut the onion in quarters instead of halves. As you did Ang, I too blended the onion right into the sauce at the end, with my stick blender. Lovely flavor. We didn't need to add any cheese, but then why would we with all the richness contributed to by the butter...lol. Will definitely make this again.

 
for double, I used 1 stick of butter, 8 T, which I thought was plenty.

for the onion, since I left the onion in the sauce, I used 1/2 of a large onion diced and sauteed a bit in the butter. If I was using the halved onion and then fishing it out of the sauce, I would still use just the one onion since the double batch cooks longer. does this make sense? But, I am a hopeless tweaker and so don't go by my tweaks necessarily smileys/smile.gif

 
Thanks Maria, I actually had the recipe at one time, not a fan of working with flour

but love these so much. maybe I will give it a whirl.
