Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with butter or nonstick spray. Optionally, line it with parchment paper for easier removal.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes using a hand mixer or stand mixer.
Add the eggs one at a time to the mixture, beating well after each addition.
Stir in the mashed bananas and vanilla extract until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry mixture to the banana mixture, mixing just until combined. Do not overmix to keep the bread tender.
Fold in the sour cream gently, followed by the chopped nuts if using.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing. Serve and enjoy!
