What Megan's Making » Cream Cheese Banana Bread
ingredients:
3/4 cup butter, softened
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 cups sugar
2 large eggs
3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups mashed bananas (about 4 medium)
1 cup chopped pecans
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
directions:
In a large bowl, beat butter and cream cheese at medium speed until creamy. Gradually add sugar, beating until light and fluffy. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating after each addition. Add in the bananas and vanilla, mixing until combined.
In a medium bowl combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, beating at low speed just until combined. Stir in the pecans. Spoon batter into 2 greased and floured 8x4-inch loafpans.
Bake at 350° for 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out with moist crumbs and the sides pull away from the pan. If necessary, cover with aluminum foil during the last 15 minutes to prevent over-browning. Cool bread in pans on wire racks 10 minutes. Remove from pans, and cool completely before slicing.
