Banana Bread Batter
- 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter plus more for greasing the loaf pan (1 stick or 4 oz. (113g) butter)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour plus more for dusting the loaf pan
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup buttermilk
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs plus 1 large egg yolk divided
- 3 ripe 480 g (17 oz) bananas
Cream Cheese Filling
- 4 oz (113g) cream cheese, softened
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
Preheat oven to 350°F (176°C) and butter and flour a 9"-x-5" loaf pan. In a bowl, mash the bananas with a masher. Set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup flour, baking soda, and salt.
In another large bowl, combine 3/4 cup sugar, melted butter, buttermilk, vanilla extract, 1 egg and 1 egg yolk and mix until smooth. Pour wet ingredients over dry ingredients above and stir until combined, then fold in the mashed bananas.
Make Cream Cheese Filling: In a small bowl, stir together the remaining 1 egg, cream cheese, and 2 tablespoons flour and 2 tablespoons sugar.
Transfer half the batter to the loaf pan. Dollop the Cream Cheese Filling on top and smooth in an even layer with a spatula. Top with the remaining batter.
Bake until deeply golden and a toothpick comes out clean, 1 hour. Let cool at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
