Sometimes, my banana bread will be perfectly golden brown on the outside and too soft in the middle (so that it falls apart). How do I perfect it so that the outside is perfectly golden brown and the inside is cooked enough so the bread holds its integrity when its sliced but is still moist? Does this mean I need to cook it longer at a lower temperature or change the proportions of my ingredients? Here is my recipe. 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda 1/2 teaspoon salt 4 overripe bananas 1 cup sugar 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted and cooled 2 large eggs 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 1/2 cup pecans, finely chopped Confectioners' sugar, for dusting Bake for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean. Don't get nervous if the banana bread develops a crack down the center of the loaf; that's no mistake, it's typical. Rotate the pan periodically to ensure even browning. Thanks! Joshua All-

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 overripe bananas
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup pecans, finely chopped
Confectioners’ sugar, for dusting

Bake for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean. Don’t get nervous if the banana bread develops a crack down the center of the loaf; that’s no mistake, it’s typical. Rotate the pan periodically to ensure even browning.

Thanks!

In fact she still puts Walnuts in her Banana Bread to this day. Maybe not exactly today, but when she makes banana bread. I have not tried Pecans, however, my mom used to use walnuts all the time.

Thanks for posting. We will try to get more advice here soon. However, I remember growing up that whenever my mom used coconut in a recipe, it made the cookie or bread more soft/moist. What do you mean by a "moist brick"? Thanks again for posting! Hey Kathy! Thanks for posting.

The loaf was too dry, I tried adding applesauce thinking it was not a overpowering taste but had moisture, it came out like a moist brick. I'm afraid to try any more things without somebody telling me their secrets. Your bananna have more moisture than my orange juice and zest. Can you help?
