Pan is too small. It’s hilarious though. Jabba the Banana bread.

Bread has been listening to Taylor Swift sing about Travis Kelce?😉

My guess is that the pan is too small. The the dark pan caused the sides to cook/set faster so the excess was forced up in the middle.

The placement of the melons 🤣🤣🤣

I think it’s the pan, too much batter and not enough room

It’s like the heat was just a smidge too high, setting a crust around the edges so the batter had nowhere to expand except up the softer middle… and then it just kept pushing up at the weak spot.
Maybe try lowering the temp by 25 degrees?

I’m cackling over here. Excellent placement, btw
anyway, on a serious note:
It’s a combination of too much batter, a dark pan, and the heat being a bit too high. This is how they get muffins to have those high peaks – get the outside to bake first so the batter has nowhere to go but up.

Look sometimes it can’t control it okay you put it right next to the melons

Did you build your banana bread on top of an old Pizza Hut???

How long did the batter sit before baking? This is a baking soda only recipe and letting it sit for too long before baking can cause doming.
You also added rum which will throw off the leavening balance with a baking soda only recipe. Rum is acidic and will definitely kick off leavening more quickly and strongly.
Could also be the oven, not all ovens are the same and yours might run hotter. You could try baking at 325 instead of 350 like the recipe says.
Some have mentioned the darker pan, that’s possible, I personally bake my banana bread lower at 325.
If I were you I’d leave out the run and lower the temp to 325 for another batch and see what happens.

I don’t bake that often, but I think you’re supposed to smash the bananas, not just stick them in the middle of the batter

Answer: Black pan strikes again.
The type of coating on that pan was intended for roasting. When you use it for something like banana bread it heats the parts around the outside, baking them before the middle. Then it explodes out the middle because the sides are set and cannot rise anymore.
Drop the temp at least 25°F whenever using a dark coated pan for baking
