Is banana bread meant to be moist?
Moisture is key when it comes to banana bread, and the ratio of flour to banana makes all the difference. If you use too much flour, you'll end up with dry bread. If you don't use enough, your bread will be too wet.
Is baking soda necessary in banana bread?
In banana bread, baking soda does more than just help the loaf cake rise: it increases the pH of the batter, leading to a browner, much darker crumb and crust. it tenderizes by reducing gluten formation in the batter
