Here is another version:
1 white or yellow cake mix
3 bananas
2 eggs
1/4 cup water
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix all ingredients for 2 minutes. Pour into a greased 5.25 x 9 x 2.75 loaf pan. Bake for 40-50 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool for 10 minutes. Then remove from the pan and allow to cool completely. Makes 1 large loaf.
This is super with a stick of melted butter instead of the oil.
You can interchange butter and oil sometimes but keep in mind that often that affects the texture etc. on some things.
Can I use sour cream instead of oil
No the oil is needed in here. In some recipes you can replace part of the milk for sour cream
Can I made mini muffins instead of a loaf? I am wanting to cook and freeze.
Yes you can. Most quick breads like this you can make into loaves, muffins, mini loaves, cakes or cupcakes. I love using my regular banana bread recipe to make into cupcakes and add vanilla cream frosting. The main thing is you may have to adjust the temp and to do this look at another mini muffin or similar recipe as to what is used for a temp and use that.
