Ingredients

2 ripe bananas, mashed
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 cup white sugar
0.5 cup butter
2 eggs, well-beaten
2.25 cups all-purpose flour
1.5 teaspoons baking powder
0.5 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup chopped walnuts

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan to prevent sticking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas, cream cheese, sugar, melted butter, and eggs. Beat until the mixture is smooth. Gently stir in the flour, baking powder, and baking soda until just combined. Fold in the chopped walnuts. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared loaf pan.
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This should take approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely, which will take about 50 minutes.
