Sour Cream Tea Bread




Source of Recipe

2 1/2 cups all purpose flour

1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup butter, softened

1 1/4 cups sugar

2 eggs

8 ounces sour cream

2 teaspoons vanilla

Grease a 9�~5�� loaf pan and preheat the oven to 350F.

Sift together flour and other dry ingredients.

Beat butter in a bowl until smooth. Add sugar and beat again.

Add eggs one at a time, then add vanilla. Beat until fluffy.

Alternately add sour cream and flour, starting with sour cream, in two or three additions.

Pour into pan, smooth top and bake for 1 hour 5 minutes, or until tester comes out clean.

Notes: I added about 1/2 teaspoon of almond extract with the vanilla and added 1 cup of dried cranberries to the batter just before I put it into the pan. The original recipe suggests other variations, which basically involve adding a cup of fruit or nuts and a teaspoon or two of spices, if you wish. I would try it again with nonfat sour cream or yogurt, just to feel a tiny bit less guilty about loving it so much.
