ISO "new" ways to use ripe bananas

[flukx]

I also use bananas for fruit milkshakes. They're great with pretty much any type of berry and a little bit of milk. Also mix slices with musli and yogurt for a quick breakfast.

How about some for the birds ?

There is something you can do as well. Specially, kids love it, and you can just keep them in the freezer.

All you need to do is cut the bananas in half and put a wood skewer in them, as if it was some kind of lollypop.

Put them in the freezer for 30 mins. Meanwhile, melt some good quaility chocolate.

Take the bananas out of the freezer, dip them in the chocolate (you can also have some chopped nuts ready to roll them after the chocolate). And back to the freezer.

You can eat them straight from the freezer!!!.

I saw once a recipe where they were using chocolate and them crushed oreo biscuits...must be very nice as well.

Cucumber and banana salad in sour cream is a delish combination for serving with BBQ items. Let me know if you want/need the recipe!

Bananas Foster
Smoothies - I have a smoothie almost every morning with frozen fruit and bananas
Banana Cake
Banana nut muffins
Banana pancakes (I use Trader Joe's multi grain pancake mix and I gussy it up with chopped bananas and walnuts folded into the batter. This also works great with chopped strawberries/walnuts).

If all else fails, peel and freeze the ripe bananas for a future use.
