Cheese Stuffed Banana Bread is an easy homemade banana bread recipe that has a ribbon of cheese going through the middle…just when you thought banana bread couldn't get any better, I went ahead and took the standard quickbread downtown. Stuffing stuff inside of stuff is a classic move I do around here to amp up a “usual”. Today’s recipe is sure not to disappoint.

Ingredients

4 oz. Cream cheese, softened
3 Ripe bananas, mashed
1 Large egg yolk, divided
2 Large eggs
1 tsp. Pure vanilla extract
1/4 cup Buttermilk
3/4 cup Sugar, divided
1/4 tsp. Kosher salt
1 tsp. Baking soda
1 cup All-purpose flour, divided, plus more for pan
1/2 cup Melted butter, plus more butter for pan

Method

01

Preheat oven to 350℉ and butter and flour a 9"-x-5" loaf pan. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup flour, baking soda, and salt.
02

In another large bowl, combine 3/4 cup sugar, melted butter, buttermilk, vanilla, 1 egg and egg yolk and mix until smooth. Pour wet ingredients over dry and stir until combined, then fold in mashed bananas.
03

Make cream cheese filling: In a small bowl, stir together remaining egg, cream cheese, and remaining 2 tablespoons each flour and sugar.
04

Transfer half the batter to prepared pan. Dollop cream cheese filling on top and smooth in an even layer with a spatula. Top with remaining batter.
05

Bake until deeply golden and a toothpick comes out clean, 1 hour. Let cool at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
