Sour Cream Banana-Berry Bread


 
Sour cream makes everything better.  I really believe that!  It makes things moist & creamy, so I tend to add it to a lot of things.  Today's recipe is a super moist banana bread, with blueberries, because they pair well together.  If you are making banana bread & want more than just the typical banana bread or cake, then try this bread.  My son scarfed it down, & I may or may not have had more than my fair share.  Plus the flavors are so light & fruity that it's a great to lighten your mood for Spring.
