What can I do with my bananas?

Indie_Kid

When they start to go brown and really soft, which I don't really like.

Can I make a crumble with them, or would that not work? All I've got in mind is bread and cake...

I think crumble might be a bit odd--although many people make 'baked bananas' so might be worth a shot of blending that recipe with a crumble topping!

Smoothies?


If we have over ripe bananas but no time / inclination to make a cake there and then we simply pop them in the freezer.

I was sceptical about banana icecream, but it really does work and is a good way to use up brown bananas.

Just mash up a couple and add a couple of tablespoons of milk; raisins are nice too. Then just put in a tub and freeze.

When it's frozen it tastes very similar to ice cream but is much healthier!

Thank you

Didn't know you could make ice cream in that way!

i was going to suggest freezsing them for banana ice cream.

I didnt believe i would like it but its lush and you can hardly taste the banana.i blend it in my mini chopper, its lovely with added coconut milk, mango etc

Yep...I do it regularly.

If I cant be bothered - then, well, I take out a handful of the slices I cut bananas into and just eat them straight out of the freezer as they are.

I freeze bananas that are going past it whole, with the intention of doing something with them, but never get past eating them whole in their frozen state, they are lovely.

As a child I used to love making banana milkshakes in my father's liquidiser.

Banana custard with layers of jam swiss roll, that's still one of my favourite desserts as an adult
