what do I do with 4 overripe bananas?

Question

they are still eatable I believe, but I prefer bananas still a bit grean. How can I cook them?

Answer 1

forget the banana bread already!

Cut them up- saute them with butter,a little sugar and some brown sugar- CAREFULLY add some rum when they are cooked- let the rum cook off- put it over ice cream

Answer 2

Make a couple of loaves of banana bread out of them, although I prefer my loaves to have at least 3 bananas each.
If you want to make a 3 banana loaf, you can put the other banana in the freezer until you have enough over ripe bananas for a loaf of banana bread. Bananas put in freezer will turn black but 1they are still ok to cook with.

Answer 5

No Bake Banana Pudding
3 Bananas
2 Packs of vanilla or french vanilla jello pudding mix
Milk
Vanilla Wafer Cookies (the round ones)
Cool Whip (optional)

Sliced the bananas in round semi-thick pieces
Put one layer of cookies into a pan (foil pan is fine any shape)
Make one pack of the pudding
Add sliced bananas ontop of the cookies
Pour pudding on top (enough to cover the bananas)
Repeat these steps & Cool Whip on top & let it set in the fridge for a few hours
I consider it done once the cookies have a soggy texture.

Answer 6

Banana Bread :) You can make 2 loafs with 4 bananas

Answer 7

1 1/2 Cups of flour
1/2 cup of sugar
1tsp of baking soda
1tsp of salt
1 stick of butter
1 egg
1 cup of mashed ripe bananas

I use 1/3 cup of milk and about a table spoon of vanilla but the recipe does not call for it.

Pre heat oven to 350 F

melt butter and mix with banana and Egg (also with milk and vanilla if you chose to use them) In a separate bowl mix together your dry ingredients. Combine together and bake for 45 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.

As a variation on this recipe you can put in Chocolate chips and any kind of nuts you like. You can also substitute a cup of apple sauce for the banana, milk, and vanilla. This makes a wonderful cake.
