Add 1 cup of sugar and 2 teaspoons of cinnamon to the dry ingredients and whisk together.

In a separate bowl, crack 2 eggs and add 0.25 cup of sour cream and 0.33 cup of sorghum.

Melt 1 stick of butter and mix it with the wet ingredients.

Mash the ripe bananas in the same bowl used for the wet ingredients.

Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients and mix until combined.

Prepare a loaf pan (the creator uses a cast iron loaf pan).

Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C).

Pour the batter into the loaf pan.

Bake in the oven for about 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes, checking for doneness with a butter knife.

The loaf may overflow if using a smaller pan, but it should be fully cooked.
