Answer 1

banana cake, well nice

Answer 2

I've only used bananas as a dessert but I've got a great recipe for one! Take a heavy skillet and melt as much butter as you like or will make a bit of sauce for the amount of bananas you'll be using. When the butter melts slice a banana into four sections (in half and once down the middle) and add those to the sauce you're making, sauteing for just a minute or two. Add some white or brown sugar, enough to thicken it and continue to 'brown' the sugar. Then take a bit of orange juice and start to thin it out until it's almost the perfect consistency. Then take some "Cointreau" or any good Orange Liqueur and thin it out the rest of the way. The alcohol will burn off! Put the warm bananas into dessert dishes, drizzle the sauce over them and enjoy!

Answer 3

Peel any you don't use up immediately and freeze in a single layer in sealed plastic bags. It is then easy to break off what you need. I agree with many posters, banana bread (I posted a recipe here a few weeks ago) or muffins. Banana ice cream is also very easy, just mash with yoghurt and honey, put in ice cream maker or freeze, stirring every hour or so. Banana split, banana smoothies. For a facial mask, mash with a little honey and cream, spread on face, leave on 10-15', rinse off.

Answer 6

i personally don't have any recipes.. but i did go through a banana phase where i wanted bananas to be cooked in everything..
...there should be a sticker on the banana which lists websites or the traders and there they will give you hundreds of recipes... i cant remember the site i went to but it was VERY good..
..i bought some bananas today... it doesn't give a website but the traders are 'Fyffes from Costa Rica'.. so you can try typing that into a search engine and see what you get.
