I know that bananas give off radiation from the potassium in them. But, does turning the same amount of banana into banana bread reduce the amount of radiation that comes off ?

@quixoticgeek Radioactive decay rate is independent of temperature. So baking bananas won't change how radioactive they are. However, depending on how many other ingredients you put in there and how much banana water baking evaporates off you might potentially concentrate or dilute the potassium
