  • Ohh here is one I forgot about, but we do it when we are camping. Get a whole banana, cut the whole banana in half lengthways, add some chocolate buttons or whatever chocolate takes your fancy. wrap it all in a nice foil parcel, put it on a medium heat and allow it to cook for 20 minutes and check it is cooked. Simple yummy. Also banana fritters do the same with the banana, coat them in batter and shallow fry once golden brown, drain on kitchen paper serve with golden syrup. To nice and easy desserts.

    I made banana and strawberry muffins at the weekend with reduced price strawberries, gorgeous.

    You can also freeze in their skins, or peel and freeze in a bag or foil.
