Gooey Banana Bread. This Classic Banana Bread is perfectly sweet, moist, and full of flavor! You can enjoy this bread plain, with chopped walnuts, or even chocolate chips. If you have ripe bananas, but won't be baking for a few days, peel and place them in the freezer until your ready.

There is nothing more frustrating than taking out your freshly baked banana bread, cutting into the center, and finding a soft, gooey mess. You might be able to keep the two ends of your loaf, but you will have to throw the center away because it will not bake evenly now that it has been cut open. Have you ever cut open a loaf of banana bread (or any quick bread, for that matter), and found, to your great chagrin, a sphere of gooey, uncooked batter in the center? You can have Gooey Banana Bread using 9 ingredients and 5 steps. Here is how you achieve it.

You sigh; you salvage both ends of the loaf. But there's no choice except to cut the heart out of your bread (literally!), and throw it away. If your bread is turning out still gooey in the middle, check your oven's temperature to ensure that your oven is getting hot enough. Use an oven thermometer to check the oven temperature.

Gooey Banana Bread instructions

Preheat your oven to 350. In a bowl, mash the bananas first and then add melted butter..
In the same bowl, mix in sugar, vanilla and the beaten egg.
Again, in the same bowl, mix in baking soda and the pinch of salt..
Lastly, mix in the flour and decide whether you want to add an optional ingredient..
I used a bread pan, which I greased with butter, (Which you probably do not have to do) and scooped in all the batter. Cook at 350 in the oven for 1 hour..

Grease and flour a loaf pan. In a medium size bowl, mash bananas until creamy and stir in lemon juice. In a medium size bowl, whisk together flour,baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars. And while that may seem like a huge range, there's a reason for it.
