Cream Cheese Banana Bread

I love making bread. You can have it for a snack, for breakfast, or even for desert. Johnny usually prefers a more dense bread. We came across this banana bread and it was a home run for us! The recipe make 2 loaves and is from kellishouse.blogspot.com.

Ingredients:

3/4 cup butter, softened

8 oz cream cheese, softened

2 cups sugar

2 large eggs

3 cups self rising flour

3-4 medium sized mashed bananas

1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Beat butter bad cream cheese until well blended. Gradually add sugar, beat until light and fluffy.

Add eggs one at a time beating until just blended. Gradually add flour to the mixture until just blended. 

Stir in bananas, vanilla, and nuts. Spoon batter into 2 greased and floured 8x4 loaf pans. 

Bake for 50-60 minutes (if it starts to brown too much, put some tin foil over top)

Remove from pans and cool on wire rack. Enjoy!
