A Note from Feedfeed
This recipe has been a work in progress for a few years. What’s most important to me is that it can be pulled off in one bowl, without a stand mixer. I add a little bourbon to enhance the brown sugar and banana flavor and some sour cream for added richness. There are also chocolate chips, because, duh, but feel free to skip them if you hate joy. All jokes aside, this is the perfect recipe to make with little ones as it couldn’t be easier. I hope you all bake a lovely loaf soon!
