But I always make banana cake!!! Mmmmmm
Let them spend some time in the freezer. There’s still a chance they could be used in pancakes or dog biscuits…
You can make banane flambée !
- Split the bananas length-wise as good as possible, they should split in 3.
- lay them done in a pan
- heat it until hot, no need to cook them too much
- sprinkle with powdered sugar
- prepare a shit glass of brown rhum and some matches (or lighter)
- pour the shot on the bananas and light it on fire !!! 🔥
- turn of the heat, let it extinguish buy itself
Et voilà ! You have delicious caramelized banana desert!
prepare a shit glass of brown […]
I… don’t think I will
Sometimes I just hate the autocorrect on my phone… I meant to write “shot glass of rhum”
All good, I was making a joke :P
I had to control my laugh during a meeting :D
Banana bread is super easy to make. The only reason i don’t make it more often is because it’s basically cake in disguise.
Tbh these don’t even look that bad. Even many times you peel one of these and they are totally fine on the inside
I love banana bread, but hate fresh bananas, so I never buy any. I guess that’s one way to solve this problem… 😂
I wasn’t ready quite yet so I put them in a bag in the freezer.
The bag got so full I had to move to a bigger bag.
My freezer is half full of brown, frozen bananas.
I don’t even like banana bread. Help.
Buy a chest freezer
Bananas act as egg substitutes. Add to any sweet baked thing, like waffles or pancakes.
Edit: peel them first, and put them on a plate in the freezer before you stick them in a freezer bag. It’s much less intimidating when you don’t have to deal with peeling a shitty slimy frozen banana.
Edit edit: Muffins are superior.
I cut them up into chunks before freezing and then use for smoothies.
Make banana bread for friends or neighbors?
I estimate I make the banana bread 13-20% of the time.
I always make the banana bread.
Don’t tell me what I do and don’t do
Finally! A use for my old bananas AND excess nut butter!
Haha, I took this post as motivation to finally use up those frozen bananas I had. Now I have banana bread muffins in my freezer instead. It’s a good upgrade if you ask me.
Freeze them! Frozen banana is even better than fresh in milkshake.
I love banana smoothie way more than banana bread. Put a couple ripe bananas, some sugar, milk, blend. Enjoy. Less effort and more bananas used.
Suugar? Ripe banana is already sweet enough.
Lose the sugar and add a date or two. Makes it whip up into a totally different consistency for some reason.
Oh interesting twist, will keep in mind
Can also sub dates or sugar with honey. Or maple syrup (not table syrup/hfcs).
I might not be getting some joke here, but what’s a “date” in this context?
Oh, thanks! I’m not native so I didn’t know.
My research showed that even 1µg of banana is enough to make the whole damn smoothie taste like nothing but banana so I leave them out of my smoothies.
I have a chest freezer in my garage full of bananas that begs to differ.
If your bananas have developed sentience and started to beg, you’ve left them too long!
The key to amazing banana bread is to make it with soft, brown sugar. The stuff that is clumpy, glistening with moisture, reminiscent of molasses. It adds so much to the flavor. And actual nuts, of course.
This makes me think you could use straight sorghum, or mix in some with brown sugar.
Also makes me want to try panela, unrefined whole cane sugar from Central and South America
I do in fact use unrefined, brown cane sugar, although I have not tried panela specifically.
The one I use pretty much looks like this:
It’s an organic fair trade brand, but I’d have to look up where it is imported from.
As I said, I can’t imagine making it with any other kind of sugar any more. Sorghum seems like an interesting idea, might have to experiment with that.
Isn’t it reminiscent of molasses because brown sugar has molasses in it?
Yes, that is absolutely correct.
Some good ideas in here!
