to throw these in the bin?

[importantkath]

I don't like waste but I am defrosting my freezer and have found all 32 frozen bananas.

There is only so much banana bread and a banana ice cream a girl can eat.

AIBU to consider just throwing them all in the bin?

Do you have something against bananas? Seriously stop buying the poor buggers as clearly you just send them to the freezer graveyard

Yes bin them, I would

Bleurgh. Bin!

Hahaha @PinkHeart5914 I can see why you would think that. I have four DC and they eat so many, (one a day at least) but sometimes they get overlooked, so I fling them in the freezer for smoothies/banana bread.

However, I haven't baked for a while...

Iv never known of freezing bananas..
Chuck them away..🤢

Bake a whole load of banana bread, drop a loaf off at all your neighbour's houses, become beloved in your area and you'll never be short of a favour from your neighbours when needed!

Or bake the bread, freeze it and have a forever supply of banana loaf.

I have some in my freezer too. May I ask how you make bread with them? Do you defrost them? Sorry that's probably daft to ask!

Don't bin them! Put them on the compost. Or give them to a neighbour who grows roses.

Think you can make banana ice cream with them?

Frozen bananas are fine.
Whizz them up with some cream for banana ice cream.

X post

Make smoothies or banana pancakes with them? If You don't want to eat them, try putting in your compost?

Nooooooo!

Keep some frozen for more banana bread!

See if you can put them on the olio app.

Or make banana bread and put that on there.

Are you actually asking us this? Bin them and get on with your life!

Make loads of banana bread and smoothies, freeze them till required.

No, no. Make banana bread. Use the bbc good food recipe turns out amazing!

I made a nice banana loaf yesterday using a Mary Berry recipe. It only used 2 bananas though

Are you sure those are bananas, Mrs Bobbit?

Whatever their provenance . . . destroy them. No-one is so hungry or nutritionally challenged that they need to consume. . . those.

I always have frozen bananas in my freezer. doesn't everyone? yes - banana bread and banana ice cream as mentioned but I usually use mine for breakfast muffins with sultanas and a few nuts. Delicious. For those that don't know. They defrost really quickly when you take them out. Just cut the tops off and squeeze the middle out like toothpaste.

You have a whole freezer drawer for bananas???? 🍌

In the bin.

Thank you Motheroftwoboys! I am off to defrost mine, banana muffins here we come. Yum.
