Now in a large bowl, mix the egg, butter, sour cream and sugar. Ideally, you should melt the butter but my butter was extreeeeemely soft and I was lazy to get another plate to melt butter and wash it.

This is a more recent one I made (same recipe of course) and I added sliced bananas on the top to make it look cooler (lol and also to finish up the bananas). Happy baking! 😊

I just sliced them and placed them on top sort of diagonally, flambéed them and brushed apricot preserves. The dark specs are just the bananas. :)
