Banana cheesecake bar ingredients

Banana – Either fresh or frozen banana works. Be sure to let the bananas turn at least partially brown before peeling and mashing, as this means the fruit is ripe.
Vanilla extract – Look for pure vanilla extract, not imitation or vanilla flavoring. You can also add in a sprinkle of cinnamon if you wish.

Cream cheese – Go with full fat cream cheese. For vegan banana bars, you can use either homemade Vegan Cream Cheese or a brand like Kite Hill, Violife, Tofutti, or Trader Joes dairy free.

Sweetener of choice – Use any of the following: regular or brown sugar, powdered sugar, pure maple syrup or agave, coconut sugar or date sugar, or erythritol or xylitol for a lower sugar dessert bar.
