    I really want to be able to make my own bananas & cream instant oatmeal packets -
    Is there a reason you don't want to use storebought or make your own with fresh bananas?

    Because I'll know exactly what's in my food, and it's just an experiment because I love to cook. I can use fresh bananas of course, and I have done so, but it's the convenience factor I want. Plus, you only have like 2 days in which a banana is perfect, and... I have wasted many a banana in the past (though sometimes I turn mushy ones into banana bread, but who wants to do that all the time???) With banana powder, I could mix up a batch of like 10 servings of oatmeal, put them in individual baggies, and have them ready to grab for work.

    I realize this thread was kinda zombified, but I like all the new suggestions I got. Thanks! I might just try the oven method and get a cheap coffee grinder...

    I use the freeze dried bananas from "just tomatoes" company for my oatmeal packets and works great. Dried banana chips do not

    Call up your local Whole foods store and ask them! The whole foods store near me usually has stuff like that... Good luck!
