After buying far too many bananas for a family of 3 and eating as many as we could take after a week, there were 3 left that, of course, stayed right where they were.
To sit.
And ripen.
Really, really, well.
Now, while EXTRA ripe bananas may look gross to some and provoke a hasty toss in to the trash bin, I see them as the perfect opportunity... To make banana bread!
And why not banana *nut bread, you ask?
Because here in Florida... we have ants. Everyone has ants.
Ghost Ants to be specific.
And what will Ghost Ants turn to when you've eliminated every other source of food while you're treating them?
You guessed it. Walnuts.
The very walnuts that I needed to make banana nut bread --at 10:30pm-- when the grocery store was closed.
Sigh.
But I digress...
Now, where was I??
Ahh yes. Extra ripe bananas...
If your mouth isn't watering yet, just imagine how good the house smelled after taking these pictures...
Okay... now you can wipe up that puddle of drool and go make your own by following this simple recipe from Diana's Kitchen!
Enjoy :)
That totally bites you couldn't have banana nut bread :( I've been making banana bread like crazy lately!! So yummy!
