Instruction

  • Mix 1 cup sugar, butter, and 2 eggs.
  • Add bananas, salt, and the baking soda dissolved in sour cream.
  • Add 2 cups flour and mix well.
  • Fold in nuts.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the cream cheese mixture ingredients.
  • Spread half of the banana batter in two greased and floured pans.
  • Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the banana batter in both pans.
  • Spread the remaining banana bread batter on top. PS - I like to sprinkle a few extra nuts on top. Or, sprinkle top with 1 Tbsp sugar mixed with 1/2 tsp cinnamon before baking. Makes a nice crunchy top. But that's totally optional.
  • Bake at 350 for 45 minutes to 1 hour. Test for doneness.
  • Cool and slice. Makes a lovely presentation.
