Cream Cheese Banana Bread

Cream Cheese Banana Bread: Savory Sweet and Satisfying

I am beginning to feel like there are a million and one was to jazz up banana bread. Just when I think there can't be any different ways to make banana bread I find a new one and if it involves anything remotely like cheesecake I am going to try it.
 
Cream Cheese Banana Bread: Savory Sweet and Satisfying

This banana bread is light and tender and has a delicious cream cheese center. And since it is made with bananas, I do not feel so guilty when I reach for another piece.
