    Banana bread. When mine overripen, i throw them in the freezer. When they defrost, they are completely mushy and perfect for banana bread.

    I have a couple at home (I'm at work). You can also look up a recipe online then replace the fat with applesauce which massively cuts the calories.

    Sorry, meant to put this on a different post...

    I found this searching on the boards...
    It's essentially, take frozen banana(s) put them in food processor, blend for about 5 mintues, stopping occassionally to scrape down the bowl. Recipe says it's like soft serve banana ice cream.

    I believe I'll give it a go.

    I just happened to stumble across this recipe moments after seeing your post, so I haven't tried it but it looks good, and reasonably nutritious!
