High Rising Banana Bread is a not-too-sweet, firm, banana bread that always rises high.
For a cream cheese swirl version, beat together 3 oz cream cheese, softened (84 grams), 5 teaspoons sugar, 2 tablespoons lightly beaten egg and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract. Put all but about 2 tablespoons of banana bread batter in the pan, then drop spoonfuls of cream cheese mixture over the top. Drop remaining spoonfuls of banana flavored batter over the cream cheese and drag a knife through gently to make a marbled pattern. Bake for 60-70 minutes.
