Paleo Banana Bread with Fudge Drizzle
Save those ripe bananas!
I have this problem. When doing my grocery shopping I try to guess ripeness of a bunch bananas and how long they might last as well as how many I will eat. There are almost always one or two that turn all soft and brown before I can eat them. Like most people I used to just throw them away. But I have learned to simply put them in the freezer to use at a later date, for Banana Bread!
Wholesome Banana Bread...Paleo Style
You can always use fresh bananas when baking, but freezing bananas is a great trick a wise baker once told me. Doing this actually increases the natural sugars within the banana and makes them great for baking.
