Can someone please give me a recipe to use up over ripe bananas? Please not banana bread or muffins!?

Answer 1

Have you ever taken a slice of plain white bread and smeared a thick layer of peanut butter on it? Then take an over ripe banana and smash the insides up with a fork and spread it over the peanut butter. Taste it before you judge.

Answer 2

Well, I like to mash up my bananas, and after I have measured out the right amount, put them in baggies and freeze for the time when I want to make banana breads.
I have also tried the peanut butter sandwich and banana which I admit I really, really like!
Banana waffles or pancakes are always a favorite.
I also freeze banana chunks and have them on hand for a quick pick me up drink mixed in with orange juice or add yogurt, honey, ice cubes, banana and make a smoothie.
You can also dress up your vanilla ice cream by mashing in your banana (like Cold Stone ice creamery) add some choc chips, nuts, whatever and make your own banana ---something.
Have fun.

Answer 8

you're really not going to believe this, but any backyard bbq type salad (potato salad, macaroni salad, coleslaw, jell-o salad, carrot & raisin salad, etc.) are made sssoooooo much better with the simple addition of a mashed banana to the dressing its in. Try it! It doesn't seem like it would work(I thought it was gross when I heard of it) but it gives it a little naturally sweet hint without making it into a sugary sweet type dish. Hope this helps (=

Answer 9

Pie! Get a box of vanilla wafers and make a pie crust from them like you would a graham cracker crust. Buy two boxes of vanilla pudding, mix according to package directions and stir in the sliced bananas; pour into firm pie crust and chill. Serve with whipped topping of choice. Fast, easy and yummy!

Answer 10

Grilled Banana Split Sundae with chocolate sauce

4 firm, but ripe, bananas, unpeeled
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
8 small scoops best-quality vanilla ice cream
Bittersweet Chocolate Sauce, recipe follows
1/2 cup coarsely chopped pecans or walnuts, toasted
Whipped cream, optional
Maraschino cherries or strawberries, optional

Build charcoal fire or preheat gas grill.

Slice bananas in 1/2 lengthwise and crosswise so each banana yields 4 pieces. Set aside. Mix the sugar and cinnamon, sprinkle on cut sides of bananas. Let bananas sit for 5 minutes.

Place bananas cut-side down on a clean cooking grate over direct low heat. Cook for 2 minutes or until grill marks appear. Using a pair of long-handled tongs, turn over and let cook 5 more minutes or until the skin pulls away from the banana.

Remove skins from banana halves and place 4 banana halves in the bottom of each serving bowl. Top each serving with 2 scoops of ice cream. Ladle about 1/4 cup of heated chocolate sauce over each sundae—let your taste determine the quantity here, add just a touch for a hint of chocolate or pour it on for a serious chocolate fix. Sprinkle each with 1 tablespoon of chopped nuts, top with whipped cream, and place a cherry or strawberry on top.

Bittersweet Chocolate Sauce:
8 ounces bittersweet (70 percent chocolate (chips or chopped block chocolate)
1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons sweet cream butter at room temperature
2 tablespoons superfine sugar
1/8 cup liqueur (either Kahula, Frangelico or Chambord)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Make the chocolate sauce up to 2 days in advance. Place chocolate in a medium size metal mixing bowl. Heat cream to almost boiling, add butter and sugar and stir to combine. Remove from heat and pour over chocolate. Whisk vigorously until melted, and well combined. Add liqueur and vanilla and stir constantly until mixture is cool the touch. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside or refrigerate up to 2 days. Warm before serving.

Yield: about 1 cup

YUMMM, Enjoy
