Banana Bread

[farmgirl19]

Here is another note, about Banana Bread. If you have bananas that are getting too ripe, peel them and freeze them, and they are perfect when thawed to make the banana bread. Doesn't matter if they turn brown. It takes 6 bananas to make the 2 loaves of bread, if using my recipe. I sometimes buy the overripes at the store on markdown and freeze them 6 to a bag, or will use the last one or two from a bunch I bought as greener, and peel and place them in a bag in the freezer. When I have done this and have 6 in the bag, then they will be ready for the next time that I am baking. Comes in handy to have them in the freezer like that, during the holidays, and lets me take advantage of not wasting anything, and also buying on markdown.

I can eat like a Queen, and feed others like royalty too, but can do it very affordably.

When I grew up, my mom used to make banana "cake." I never heard it called banana "bread" until much later in life. I suppose it may have been called banana bread because it was baked in a loaf pan. My wife always adds chopped pecans to hers. I don't care what it's called, it is delicious when warmed with a dollop of butter and a hot fresh cup of coffee. Pound cake also makes an acceptable substitution.:licking:

FG, freeze those ripe bananas, then dip them in hot fudge for a delectable bit of indiscrete pleasure. Fudge frozen banana on a stick is yummy.
