My kids enjoy eating bananas each morning for breakfast. Since I only grocery shop once a month I've had to get creative to make them last! Both of my kids love the frozen bananas so much that they prefer them over the fresh ones!
- I buy roughly 20 bananas at the start of each month
- I wait until they are starting to turn brown...like this:
- Then I PEEL each banana and break it in half
- Next I place each half in a Ziploc freezer gallon sized bag (and in this case I do think the brand name is worth it as it tends to cause less freezer burn than other freezer bag brands)
- I am careful to lay each one flat in the bag
- After all of my bananas are in the bag I carefully lay the bag in the freezer making sure it stays laying flat so the bananas won't stick together after frozen!
- Each morning I grab one half of banana for each child and let it thaw a little before cutting it into pieces for them! They are also EXCELLENT to add to smoothies!
- I recommend if you're going to eat them to do so rather quickly as after a while, when they get fully thawed, they get very mushy!
