Well, one of our favorites, anyway. I'm always switching recipes.......I'm a recipe addict......Also, the serving size is a guess - it goes so fast in my house it's hard to tell. I substitute freshly ground whole grain flour for the all-purpose. **PLEASE NOTE**. If you substitute store-bought wheat flour for the all-purpose, you do not need to add the additional amount of flour - just use the same amount as all-purpose.
Ingredients:
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine
1 cup mashed ripe banana
2 eggs
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour or 2 3/4 cups freshly ground soft wheat flour or 2 3/4 cups oat flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup chopped nuts
Directions:
1. Combine cream cheese, sugar and margarine, mixing until well blended.
2. Blend in banana and eggs. Add combined remaining ingredients, mixing just until moistened. Pour into greased and floured 9x5 loaf pan.
3. Bake at 350*, 1 hours and 10 min., or until wooden toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 5 min.; remove from pan. Serve with additional cream cheese, if desired.
