Recipe Introduction


This was my gramma's recipe -- It's the best!!! I think the secret ingredient is the sour cream. Also, be sure to let your bananas go to "wine". I just bag and freeze mine, then when I'm ready to make bread, I let them come to room temperature in a bowl. Be sure to include all the "wine" (ie -- liquid) from the bananas. Also, I think once the bread is cooled, it helps to wrap the loaves in foil and freeze for a couple weeks. Hmmmm, good! Of course, that's hard to do if you only make one loaf (it goes quickly), so you may want to at least TRIPLE the recipe. ;) Edensong
