What Can You Do With Ripe Bananas?

I love baking with them because they taste so good in breads, cakes, cookies, bars and more! AND…I always have ripe bananas on hand!  Ripe bananas give such a moistness to baked goods and can replace eggs a lot of the time when baking!  So, 1/2 of a mashed banana could replace one egg as a substitute, in case you want to try it sometime!  Woot-woot!

Ripe bananas are also filled with lots of nutrients! They contain a high concentration of dietary fiber, vitamin C, potassium, vitamin B-6 and antioxidant compounds. So hey!  That’s a definite plus right?

 Here’s 25 Delicious Recipes for Ripe Bananas!
