I always end up with a few bananas on my counter at risk for turning all brown and mushy which is the perfect time to use them for baking. Baking with bananas is a great way to add sweetness and flavor. You want to make sure that your bananas are nice and soft when using them to bake. The unripe ones wont do. These are favorites in my house. Especially right out of the oven smeared with a little cinnamon vegan butter.
