Creamy Banana Bread image

I have been using this recipe for a few years now, and it remains my family's favorite for banana bread! The combination of bananas and cream cheese make this a very moist bread.

Time 1h15m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 12

½ cup margarine, softened
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 ¼ cups white sugar
2 eggs
1 cup mashed bananas
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
¾ cup chopped pecans
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 8x4-inch loaf pans.
  • Cream the margarine and cream cheese together. Gradually add the white sugar, and continue beating until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the mashed bananas and vanilla. Add flour, baking powder, and baking soda; mix until batter is just moist.
  • In a small bowl, mix together chopped pecans, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, and cinnamon.
  • Divide half the batter between the two prepared loaf pans. Sprinkle pecan mixture over the batter in the pans, and top with remaining batter.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of each loaf comes out clean, about 45 minutes.
