Can you freeze liquidised banana?

[Cinderellascarrieg]

If you liquidise it with other fruits, eg tinned pears in juice or cooked apple? I'd've thought it'd go a bit gross & slimy on its own. I've just bought a huge bunch of the damn things & am trying to avoid the tedium of washing up the liquidiser after whizzing ONE banana!

i really dont think you can im afraid, cant remember why

I don't think bananas freeze at all well, but no need to liquidise them, just mash one up with a fork.

I know that if you freeze it on its own it goes black. A friend of mine did something like mango and banana with lemon juice and I think that was all right - but I know she had to scrape something off the top of it!

I never liquidised banana by the way, just mashed it with a for - you can get it quite runny that way

Think the top scrapings were something to do with the sugar in the fruit that had risen upwards.

Rightoh, I'll just stick to mashing them individually then - sure I've seen jars of baby goo with banana in, though. How do Heinz etc stop it from going black & slimy? Or is that one of those questions I really don't want to know the answer to?

Think it's something to do with the Vitamin C (otherwise known as ascorbic acid) which is often added. I think it stops things going black/brown etc.

lemon juice will stop them going black I think. Or just make lots of yummy banana cake and freeze that?

Now that's a good idea - be a bit wasted on ds though, he's still at the puree stage!

I actually liquidised 1 banana, 2 tinned pears, a shake of Heinz baby rice & a small quantity of EBM in the end & what he didn't eat sat quite happily in the fridge over night, without going black, & was wolfed down for breakfast.

Must be the scotch in the EBM!
