Don’t throw away overripe bananas! 7 super easy ways to use up overripe bananas.

 

Do you have a bunch of bananas sitting in your fruit bowl that are just a little bit too ripe? Don’t throw them away! Overripe bananas are quickly thrown into the dust bin, however, when you have so many leftover bananas just don’t make the mistake of throwing them away rather consider making a nice and delicious recipe that will be enjoyed in the house using those same old bananas.

Overripe bananas are full of vitamins A, B, and C, very rich in potassium too. When your bananas get brown with dark patches at the back, mushy and soft, what happens next?

Here are seven delicious ways to use overripe bananas instead of throwing them away:
