Method
Preheat the oven to 350(f) degrees. Lightly grease an 8-inch loaf pan & set aside.
To a saucepan over low heat add the butter. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally until butter begins to turn brown & has a nutty aroma. Remove from heat & let cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl mash banana with a fork. Add the brown butter & mash into the banana.
Whisk in sour cream, sugar, egg & vanilla until well combined.
Sift in flour, cinnamon, baking powder & salt. Stir until batter comes together.
Transfer to prepared loaf pan & top with sliced banana if desired. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, until the top bounces back to touch.
Let cool completely before slicing & serving.
