Bananas ripen so easily, so here is a couple of ways you can use them up.
*️⃣ Freeze them in portions. If you have a Thermomix (or a blender or food processor) then turn the dial up & blitz them from frozen to make the best banana ice cream 🍦🍌. My kids love it. Frozen bananas are also great for smoothies

*️⃣ These nut free balls are a nutritious school friendly snack that can be stored in the freezer too. I love them straight out of the freezer or you can defrost them as needed. And a good little sustainable energy & fibre source for the kids.
