Made this up after looking at several recipes - really like what the cream cheese adds.

Prep two bread pans and preheat oven to 350.

Mix together:

8 to 10 very ripe, mashed bananas
8 oz. room temp. cream cheese
2 tsp. vanilla
2 tsp. baking soda
3 cups A/P flour
2 cups brown sugar
2 sticks melted butter - I use salted
4 large eggs
1/2 tsp. salt (omit if using salted butter)

Pour batter in to the pans and sprinkle coarse sugar on top.

Bake 60 - 70 minutes or till done.

Google: flour bakery banana bread

I make this all the time and get a ton of compliments and recipe request. I add chocolate chips

As a true lover of banana bread I think the real ticket is to make zucchini bread instead.

Or is it to combine the two? I forget. I'll have to ask grandma.

Just made the Flour banana bread and it was absolutely delicious!! Thank you!

Best banana bread recipe that I've ever tried:

I used to find that the moisture from the bananas made it soggy and collapse when it cooled Reducing the liquid as specified in this recipe concentrates the flavor, and you end up with a loaf that keeps its volume.

Negative. Nuts. Has to have nuts - specifically pecans!

No

Walnuts!

Pecans! I'm from By God Texas, and pecans are a gift from the Gods!

(But I like walnuts mixed in too)
