I attempted to make banana bread last night and failed. miserably. It wasn't so bad beside the fact that the top half of the middle portion of the loaf didn't cook so well. I think i need to invest in two smaller loaf pans. The non-cooking happened because i didn't leave the bread in for as long as the last time I made it - to avoid browning the bread too much. yuck, i hate burnt things. better luck next time.
