How to Make Banana Blintz Loaf

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, mash bananas until smooth. Add sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract; mix well.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Stir in the melted butter and sour cream until well incorporated.
  6. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Dust with powdered sugar before serving (optional).
