Paula Deen's is best, but it only takes two bananas. Check hers out at foodtv.com





When I have too many ripe bananas, I peel 'em and freeze them in a ziploc and use 'em in recipes up to 6 mos.





They're great to use in the morning - fruit %26amp; yougur smoothie - you won't hafta add ice! Yum!!
I know this isn't a recipe, but don't forget that you can make a bunch of banana breads and freeze them, as well as freezing the ripe bananas. I slice my ripe bananas, put them in a freezer bag (1 banana per bag) and they are all ready to use in smoothies.

This is a list of various ways to make banana bread. Each amount varies, so you'll have to pick the one you want to use.

This is a list of various ways to make banana CAKE. Same deal.
Too many ripe bananas??? Leave the peel on them, put them in a ziploc and store them in the freezer. When you are ready to use them, Take them out of the freezer and peel them, set them in a dish and when they thaw out they are ready to be added to your favorite recipe!!
If you can't use up all the bananas at once, put them in the freezer. You won't want to eat them as-is once you defrost, but they'll keep in there for about 6 months. Once defrosted, some of the liquid will naturally separate from the fruit. However, they'll still be perfectly fine to use in banana bread, banana muffins, or a smoothie.





Here's my recipe for banana chocolate chip muffins:





Preheat oven to 375 celcius





In a medium bowl, combine


1/2 c melted butter


3/4 c sugar


1 egg, slightly beaten


3 large ripe bananas, mashed





In a large bowl, combine


1 1/2 c flour


1 tsp baking soda


1 tsp baking powder





Add wet ingredients to dry and stir just to combine (do not over-stir -- batter will still be lumpy). Mix in 1 c. semi-sweet chocolate chips.





Divide into greased muffin cups


Bake for 20 - 23 minutes





Yield: 12 muffins
Sour Cream Banana Bread


1/2 cup + 1 Tbs. butter; room temp. 6 cups all-purpose flour


3 eggs 1 1/2 Tbs. baking powder


1 1/2 cup sour cream 2 Tbs. baking soda


3 cups sugar 1 1/2 tsp. salt


2 1/4 cups mashed ripe banana 3 cups coarse chopped nuts


3 Tbs. lemon juice





In a mixing bowl cream together butter, eggs, sour cream, and sugar.





In a separate bowl combine bananas and lemon juice. Stir to mix well.





In a separate bowl sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.





Alternately mix flour mixture and bananas into wet ingredients, beginning and ending with flour. Stir in chopped nuts.





Pour batter into a well greased 12'; Dutch oven. Place lid on oven and bake using 8-10 briquettes bottom and 14-16 briquettes top for 30-35 minutes or until toothpick inserted into center of bread comes out clean.





Serves: 15-20.





[ Back ]
I don't have a good receipe but I can tell you what to do with those bananas until you're able to use them.





Peel them, wrap in foil, and throw them in the freezer.





They will last at least a couple of months before you absolutely have to use them.


By then you'll have made at least a few more banana breads, instead of having to make them all at once.





You can also throw them in a blender when your making a shake, turns any shake into a great banana shake.





Enjoy.
