I froze bananas for some nice, healthy smoothies except I forgot that I was suppose to PEEL THE BANANA first before freezing it!

Any ideas on how to get the peeling off a frozen solid banana?! I'm SO weird.

    LOL!!! Can you let it defrost like 20 min. and then peel enough off to get the "meat" out? :happy:

    I did that too before I made my "ice cream." Like pp said, let them thaw and you will be able to peel them.

    You can slice the skin off with a paring knife.

    Frozen banana slices are yummy - I always slice them into a bowl of lemon or pineapple juice to keep them from turning brown, before putting them in the freezer.
    If you use a Saran wrapped cookie sheet, it's easy to transfer the frozen slices into a freezer safe zippy bag!

    Frozen seedless grapes are awesome too :)

    dunk it into warm water for just a few minutes. The skin will slide right off.
