Who does not love making a good healthy banana bread? And besides from being easy, one of the best things about making banana bread, is that you can really use any kind of banana – no matter their color!
If your bananas are a little green – you can still use them as the baking process will soften them up. Or if you prefer, you can ripen them quickly overnight by putting them into a brown paper bag with some other ripe bananas (or other ripe fruit) and let the ethylene gas speed up the process.
If your bananas are a bright sunny yellow – they’re perfect for both eating and baking! If you do want them even more ripe, you can put them in the oven at 300˚ F for about 20 minutes. This will ripen the banana a little further so you have soft mushy insides.
More mature bananas (with brown spots or even completely brown) are absolutely PERFECT for making banana bread. They’ve got a great sweetness and a really soft consistency that is great for baking. And remember, if you have too many brown bananas that you can’t use up quickly, you can always peel them and put them in the freezer. Bananas freeze very well and work great in any banana bread recipe.
So now we know which bananas are the best for banana bread (ALL OF THEM!) let’s check out some mouthwatering recipes here:
