Momma Pittkin's Banana Cake

This is a great recipe for using up bananas that have turned brown and mushy - it's actually a lot easier to make this cake with ones like that. Also, I recommend doing this with a bundt pan, but you can use whatever baking dish you have. If you'd like to borrow my bundt pan, you're welcome to it as soon as I can get it back from Jesse (THE JUICE IS RUNNIN!)

INGREDIENTS:
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 4 tbsp sour cream
- 1 cup mashed bananas
- 1 1/2 cup flour
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1/3 tsp salt
- chocolate chips and/or almonds and/or walnuts

PREPARATION:

Preheat oven to 350. Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs (lightly beaten) and baking soda dissolved in sour cream. Beat well. Add banana, flour, salt, and vanilla. Mix thoroughly. Add chocolate chips to taste (if you like), and/or 1/2 cup of nuts. Bake in a well greased and floured bundt pan for 35-45 minutes. Instead of chocolate chips, you can also use blueberries. Another option is to use a little less banana and add a 1/2 tsp of cinnamon. Enjoy!
