Assistant staff of life has risen to the status of "Quarentine's Most Beloved Blistering Treats." Just in baking so much banana bread, accept we lost respect for the endless possibilities that ripe bananas can become? Hither are some of my favorite ways to use ripe bananas that aren't banana bread.

1. Nice-Cream

Dainty-foam blends frozen bananas and whatever mix-ins you lot prefer. I like peanut butter powder and chocolate chips, merely you lot tin can also add fruit like strawberries or mango.

2. Smoothie Bowls

Become some kokosnoot shavings, nuts, and crunchy granola for this 1! I blend bananas, blueberries, hemp seed, chia, and coconut milk for a fresh morning smoothie.

3. Assistant Pancakes

Yous'll need spices, ripe bananas, oats, and egg for this variation on a breakfast archetype.

4. Coffee Cake Banana Bread Muffins

I had to add at least ane spin on traditional banana bread! These muffins are baked with love and tons of streusel on elevation.

5. Peanut Butter Banana Chocolate Oatmeal Confined

If you need a wholesome on-the-become treat, endeavour making these peanut butter banana chocolate oatmeal confined (and try proverb that ten times fast...) They're portable and stay fresh for several days- though I doubt they'll be around long!

vi. Banana Ice Box Cake

Although it'south already the finish of summer (how did THAT happen), you can ever make room for water ice foam. This icebox cake is super easy to make and stick in your freezer for la         ter.

After all, in that location's ever money in the assistant stand.

Make these banana babies (aka banana pops) by sticking popsicle sticks into bananas and freezing. Cover in chocolate, basics, sprinkles, peanut butter, or whatever your center desires.

viii. Cinnamon-Carbohydrate Banana Donut Holes

Donut holes are the handier version of regular donuts. Y'all can pop a couple in your mouth while you're walking through the kitchen and not call up anything of information technology.

I love calculation a swipe of peanut butter (especially Ready & Fogg'south Coffee Maple Lead) on a whole-wheat wrap with sliced bananas, chia seeds, and crunchy granola. It's a keen pre-workout snack!

10. Ice Cream with Pan-Fried Cinnamon Bananas

These cinnamon bananas would taste neat when paired with coffee, cookie dough, vanilla, peanut butter, fudge, or chocolate ice foam.
