When mine get to that stage, I peel and cut them in to quarters then throw them in a freezer bag and freeze them for smoothies or whatever I want to mash them into at a later date. That way I don't have to rush!0

Just made these oatmeal cupcakes and they use 2.5 cups of mashed overripe bananas.....they're delicious and make part of a quick breakfast on the go. I freeze them and take them on the road with me with an apple/apple sauce. They're also good iced with a little peanut butter!0 -
I like making oatmeal bars. The base is 1 banana for every cup of oatmeal and then you add in whatever you want. I'll make it with dates or apples and brown sugar or cranberries. There are lots of options. I typically use 2 bananas and 2 cups old fashioned oats, mix all the ingredients together and bake at 350 for 35 minutes.0

I smush 'em up into my oatmeal or blend them with milk and protein powder.0

sprinkle cinnamon on bananas, bake in oven 375 for 20 min, cover with foil poke pencil hole, remove foil last 5 min, serve with scoop of vanilla ice cream or sour cream0

This is a paleo recipe but I promise it is the best banana bread ever! I'm not paleo but I love this recipe. http://civilizedcavemancooking.com/grain-free-goodies/paleo-banana-bread/0

This ^^^^ the key is to make sure you peel them first!! I even eat them frozen :-) like a little icicle0 -
Peel and freeze a ripe banana and then throw them in a blender or food processor. It will look like ice cream. Mock banana ice cream for about 100 cal.
Also take a banana and mash it, add 1/4 c. egg whites, sprinkle cinnamon and/or vanilla. mix and make dollar size pancakes.0 -

Not the response you are looking for...
I usually give them to a co-worker or friend who likes them that way. if I forget - trash it goes!0 -
AZ summer means green bananas or almost overripe by the time you get home from the store! I just discovered the joy of chunky monkey protein shakes, so I bought bananas, peeled, cut in chunks, and froze for shakes...
(1 banana, 1TBS natural PB, 1 scoop chocolate protein powder, 1 cup almond milk, a few ice cubes, blend and enjoy...)0 -
