Using up fresh fruit

meritaten

stick some lolly sticks into the peeled bananas and freeze them. they are really nice!
or mash them up and make banana sarnies!

I have some Banana's which are rather over ripe and various berry's past thier best lurking in the bottom of the fridge.

Idea's?? but heres the trick ... nothing baked or with loads of suger because im trying to diet and if i make cakes/pies i always eat them and that doesn't help me lose weight.

There's a whole thread of ideas here I'll add this thread to that one later to keep ideas together.

i use bananas instead of sugar in a fruit loaf.

1 cup oats or weetabix or musli
1 cup dried fruit like sultanas
1 cup sugar (i use bananas)
1 cup milk

mix together (i also put in cinnamon) and leave for a few hours.

Mix in 1 cup SR flour.

bake on 180 for about an hour. i use a loaf tin.

i have it for breakfast with a bit of butter on.

Does the recipe not need any eggs or fat?
I didn't want to make it only to find you'd forgotten to add these ingredients to the recipe!!
If it is as you say, it would be so healthy without the added sugar, eggs and fat. I'll definitely be making it. YUM!

no eggs and no fat. it is only has 5 different ingredients, a mug of each. i actually made one the other day and added 1/2 a jar of mincemeat insted of 1/2 the raisens. very nice!!!

Thanks so much for that recipe Nuttybabe. It looks so easy. I have it resting in the bowl now just waiting to add the flour... I can't wait!! ( I even went out to buy some bananas for it, it sounded that yummy!! :o )
