Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Banana Bread:
    • 2 cups all-purpose flour
    • 1 teaspoon baking soda
    • 1/2 teaspoon salt
    • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
    • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
    • 2 large eggs
    • 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 23 bananas)
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • For the Cream Cheese Filling:
    • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
    • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
    • 1 large egg
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, beat the butter and 3/4 cup sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • Mix in the mashed bananas, vanilla extract, and sour cream until combined.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  • In another bowl, prepare the cream cheese filling by beating the cream cheese, 1/4 cup sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Pour half of the banana bread batter into the prepared loaf pan. Spoon the cream cheese mixture over the batter, then spread the remaining banana bread batter on top.
  • Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
