Super Moist Banana Bread

What you need:

1/2 cup virgin coconut oil; you can use butter
1 cup yogurt cheese, or cream cheese ( I used sour cream)
1 cup brown sugar
1 egg
2 bananas, medium sized one
1 1/2 cups flour
1 t soda
1 t baking powder
pinch of salt
What you need to do:

Heat oven to 350. Line a loaf pan, with parchment paper. Sift the dry ingredients together in a large mixing bowl; set aside. In a mixing bowl, beat the coconut oil or butter on medium speed, until soft; about 7 minutes. Add the yogurt cheese, and continue beating on medium speed, for 3 minutes. Add the sugar, and beat on medium speed, until fluffy; 5 minutes. Add the egg and bananas, mix until combined. Add the dry ingredients, mix on medium speed, until combined; about 3 minutes. Pour into the loaf pan. Bake for 45 – 55 minutes. Each oven is different, start checking at 45 minutes. You want the bread to be golden brown, and a knive will come out clean, when you slide stick it into the middle of the loaf. Serve. Eat.
