How many of you freeze your bananas? Throw your hands in the air, if you'se a true playa. (That song has been stuck in my head all week & I really wanted to work it into this blog post for you -- playa banana freezin fools.) Seriously though, when you notice your bananas are near the end of their life, I seriously suggest you peel, cut & freeze them. It comes in really handy.

Banana bread.
Banana "ice cream".
Smoothies.
or...

Dark chocolate frozen banana bites. I know.

It's easy. You will need:

Bananas
Candy making/dipping chocolate wafers (in the baking section)

So, melt your chocolate according to the directions on the back of the bag. I did it in the microwave, stirring at every 15 second interval. Then take out your frozen banana pieces. & dip! Return to freezer until you are ready to eat.

So mine didn't turn out so pretty, but they did taste good! Stored properly (in an air tight container), I think your banana bites could last in the freezer several months. If you don't eat them by then.

How else do you guys use your frozen bananas? Now I'm curious.
