1 tsp vanilla extract
¼ cup sour cream
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with butter or nonstick spray and line the bottom with a strip of parchment paper.
2
Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, swirling occasionally, until the foam subsides and the milk solids at the bottom turn golden brown and smell nutty, about 5–7 minutes. Pour into a large mixing bowl and let cool for 5 minutes.
