Bananas are a nutritious and healthy fruit that offers a range of health benefits. They can be enjoyed on their own or added to a variety of dishes, making them versatile and convenient fruit. What makes them even more interesting is that when they are overripe, they are perfect for adding to baked goods.

Overripe bananas are ideal for baking. They have a higher sugar content than ripe bananas, which makes them sweeter. This sweetness helps to enhance the flavour of the baked goods. Overripe bananas also have a higher moisture content, which makes them ideal for baking. This moisture helps to keep the banana loaf moist and soft.

The time it takes for bananas to become overripe can vary depending on various factors, such as the ripeness of the banana at purchase, storage conditions, and temperature. Generally, it takes about 2-5 days for bananas to become overripe at room temperature. Store bananas in a warm and humid environment to ripen it quickly.

Chef’s Tip: If the bananas are not overripe, pop in them in the oven at 180degrees for about 20 min. The bananas will go brown and soft. Although overripe bananas are sweeter, baked bananas are a great alternative if your bananas are not overripe yet.

So, the next time you have a few overripe bananas on hand, don’t throw them away – use them to make some delicious baked goods!
