🍌✨ Cream Cheese–Filled Banana Bread

🍳 Instructions

1. Preheat

  • Heat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Grease and line a loaf pan with parchment.

2. Make Banana Batter

In a bowl:

  • Whisk melted butter + sugar
  • Add eggs, vanilla, bananas → mix until smooth
  • Add sour cream

Add dry ingredients:

  • Flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt
  • Mix until just combined (don’t overmix)

3. Make Cream Cheese Filling

  • Beat cream cheese, egg, sugar, vanilla, cornstarch
  • Should be smooth and thick

4. Assemble

  • Pour half of the banana batter into pan
  • Spread cream cheese filling evenly
  • Cover with remaining banana batter

💡 Optional: Add a banana slice on top for decoration (like the picture)


5. Bake

  • Bake 55–70 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in bread (not filling) comes out clean
  • If browning too fast, tent with foil

6. Cool

  • Let cool completely before slicing so the filling sets

😍 Tips for Best Results

  • Overripe bananas = sweeter, moister bread
  • Don’t slice while hot or filling will ooze
  • Add cinnamon to batter if you love spice
  • Swap sugar for brown sugar for deeper flavor

🍽️ Storage

  • Refrigerate up to 5 days
  • Freeze slices up to 2 months

💡 Optional Add-Ins

  • Chocolate chips
  • Pecans or walnuts
  • Caramel drizzle on top
