*If you are a huge cream cheese fan, I would suggest doubling the ingredients for the cream cheese swirl and making and extra layer of cream cheese before swirling. As in: first layer ⅓ banana bread batter, then ½ cream cheese mixture, then another ⅓ banana bread mixture, last ½ of cream cheese mixture, and lastly the remaining banana bread batter. Then swirl your knife around a few times to create that beautiful ribbon.
**If top is browning too quickly and center is not set, cover loosely with foil and continue baking.
