Yield 40

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup mashed ripe banana
½ cup sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup margarine
1 cup white sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup chopped walnuts
½ cup unsalted butter
1 cup brown sugar

  • Cream margarine and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer. Beat in eggs. Mix in banana-sour cream mixture until incorporated. Add dry ingredients until well combined. Stir in nuts.
