Tip

Banana Basics

Look for plump bananas that are evenly yellow-colored. Green bananas are under-ripe, while a flecking of brown flecks indicates ripeness. If bananas are too green, place in a paper bag until ripe. Adding an apple to the bag will speed the process. Store ripe bananas at room temperature. To prevent bruises, a banana hook or hanger is a great inexpensive investment. For longer storage, you can place ripe bananas in a tightly sealed plastic bag and refrigerate. The peel will become brown but the flesh will remain unchanged. One pound of bananas equals about 3 medium or 1-1/3 cups mashed.

Reviewed on Apr. 26, 2012 by leannette

I've made these for my Sunday School class several times. They request them over and over again, and ask for the recipe. The only thing I change is that 15 minutes is not near long enough for them to get slushy. They need to be out of the freezer for about an hour prior to eating.
