Steps
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 12 x 8' pyrex (you can use a smaller pyrex if you prefer the bread to be thicker). Peel and shred the yucca and set aside. In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt and set aside. In a large bowl cream the butter with the sugar. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Add half of the dry ingredients and mix well, add cream cheese, mix well and, add the other half of the dry ingredients and mix well. With a wooden spoon incorporate the shredded yucca, until well incorporated.
Step 2
Pour or spoon batter into the prepared pan and cook for 45 to 55 min.

Substitutions
butter → olive-oil
Use a little less oil than butter. Pastry and laminated doughs are a different problem.
egg (silken tofu or skip (depends on the dish)) → silken tofu or skip (depends on the dish)
Carbonara without egg is not carbonara. Fried rice can skip the egg. We will not pretend otherwise.
cream (whole milk + a knob of butter) → whole milk + a knob of butter
Thinner and less rich. Reduce a little longer if you need body.
flour (a gluten-free blend (not plain rice flour alone for bread)) → a gluten-free blend (not plain rice flour alone for bread)
Coatings and roux can swap. Yeast breads need a blend designed for gluten-free baking.
