When baking a cake or banana bread the middle always seems to come out soggy?

A soggy middle in cake or banana bread can result from several factors, such as underbaking, incorrect oven temperature, or too much liquid in the batter. Ensure that you’re using the correct measurements and following the recipe closely. Additionally, using an oven thermometer can help verify that your oven is at the right temperature. Lastly, testing for doneness with a toothpick or skewer can help ensure that the middle is fully baked before removing it from the oven.
