Banana Cream Cheese Muffins or Bread

1 8oz package of cream cheese

1/2 cup of unsalted melted butter

3/4 to 1 cup of sugar

1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

1 1/2 cups of flour

1 beaten egg

Brown sugar for sprinkling on top before baking (optional)

Steps:

1. In a medium bowl mix together with an electric mixer the bananas, cream cheese, and melted butter.

2. Next add the sugar, salt, and baking soda.

3, Then add vanilla extract and the beaten egg.

4. Last, add your flour and mix well.

5. What you want to do now is butter your muffins tins and pour batter into the tins. Distributing equally. (If making banana bread loaf sprinkle a little brown sugar and pat into bread *optional*)

6. Place in oven at 350 for 12-15 mins. Oven time may vary. Be sure to check on them. They are done when the tops are little golden.

*if baking a banana bread loaf bake at 350 for 45 to 50 minutes or until a toothpick or butterknife comes out clean*
