Bake some tasty banana bread with overripe bananas and freeze it for later!
My husband eats two bananas a day.
Sometimes my kids also eat lots of bananas.

Suddenly, Im staring down a bowl of spotted, overripe fruit.Banana Breadto the rescue!
I often make two or three loaves at a time.
Never store it in the refrigerator.
Erin Alderson
A refrigerator circulates cool air, which removes moisture and can prematurely dry breads and cakes.
Store it for up to four days on your counter.
How Long Does Banana Bread Last?
Elise Bauer
Pop a slice in the toaster, and you will never know the difference.
If you notice mold, its time to get rid of it.
I find that this is enough to keep freezer burn away.
(Also, it’s possible for you to reuse both the foil and the bag, yay!)
All versions were also placed in a zip-top bag.
It all depends on the amount of time you have.
Remove the half or whole loaf from the zip-top bag, but keep the foil on.
Place it directly on the rack of your oven.
The bread will thaw as the oven warms and comes to temp.
Remove the bread from the oven, and let it stand in the foil for 10 minutes.
This allows residual heat to continue thawing the bread.
When its cool enough to handle, unwrap it, slice it, and slather it with butter.
