  • I bake it in an 8x4 loaf pan you can use a 9x5 loaf pan but you'll need to watch the baking time.

Can I freeze ripe bananas?

Absolutely! Once the bananas get those brown freckles, It's time to bake with them. If your bananas are ripe and ready but not ready to bake, just put the whole banana, in a ziplock freezer bag. Then when you're ready to use them just defrost them in the refrigerator overnight or in the microwave on defrost and you're good to go! They will be mushy once they have been frozen and that's normal.
