Last time I had a couple of old bananas I made some banana bread, I think this was the recipe: http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/7380/banana-cake

Thank you everyone, gazillions of ideas, hmmmm, banana bread, heard of it but not done it before, will have a go and let you know.
Hopefully my two measily bananas will go a long way :j
Are banana muffins a possibility, my two would love that sort of thing?

Hi chella,

Two bananas should be perfect for making a batch of muffins, or banana milkshakes are very quick and easy to make if you have a stick blender.

There are lots more ideas on these threads that should help:

If I have any over ripe bananas I tend to skin them and freeze them to stick in smoothies at a late date.

i see you have lots of suggestions already
next time you have bananas that are going to over ripen
put them in the fridge
it halts the ripening
just take em out a wee while before you want to use them

having said that i seldom do it
i love the excuse to make banana bread:rotfl:

Mash. Add a good shake of cinnamon. Spread onto hot toast. Enjoy.;)
