Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°. Grease and flour two 9x5 loaf dishes.
Whisk 4 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup sugar, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1 ½ teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1 teaspoon salt in large bowl.
In a separate large bowl, mash 6 bananas, mashed (about 3 cups). Add 1 cup sour cream, 2 sticks unsalted butter, melted and cooled, 2 teaspoons vanilla, and 4 eggs to the bananas. Whisk until well blended.
Gently fold the bananas into the flour just until all flour has been incorporated. Pour into prepared dishes and bake for about one hour.
Check after an hour with a toothpick and if still gooey then add 5 minutes, checking each time to see if the bread is done.
When ready, the loaves will be a dark, golden brown.
