freezing bananas

[misshardbroom]

Somebody told me I could freeze over ripe bananas and then use them on subsequent occasions for making banana bread etc. Is this true?

I do this, and use them for smoothies, banana cake etc. I hope it's OK! Got the tip from a Nigella book (I think) so I assumed it was fine.

My mum used to freeze sliced bananas laid out on trays.

She'd then whizz them up and mix in grated dark chocolate for a healthier version of ice cream. Really really yummy!

I keep meaning to try that now we have a food processor. Thanks for reminding me!
