I don't think I've ever had bad banana bread. It seems to be one of those foolproof foods. But, you have to try the following recipe that K found on the Food Network website. It makes the moistest banana bread we've ever had. It'll stay spongey for several days just covered in aluminum foil! No need to store it in a sealed container. The recipe originates from Chef Joanne Chang of Flour Bakery in Boston.
