When you say banana bread, Elizabeth and I are thinking this recipe. This recipe the center always gets done.

2 C. flour
1 C. sugar
1 T. baking powder
1/2 tsp, salt
1 C. ripe bananas, mashed (about 2 to 4 medium)
1/3 C. milk
1/3 C. peanut butter
3 T. vegetable oil
1 egg
1 C. milk chocolate morsels, divided
1/3 C. peanuts, chopped

Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Combine bananas, milk, peanut butter, oil and egg in bowl; add to dry ingredients, mixing just until moistened. Stir in 3/4 cup of the chocolate morsels. Spoon batter into pan. Sprinkle peanuts and remaining 1/4 cup chocolate morsels evenly over batter. Bake 60 minutes at 350°, or until center comes out clean. Cool in pan 10 minutes, loosen sides of loaf pan and remove onto cooling rack.

Makes 1 loaf.

NOTE: Depending on your pans, it will make 3 to 4 small loaves. I usually use the small loaves. You might be able to freeze, but I unfortunately eat one loaf in a sitting.
