- If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a ziplock bag with the corner snipped off.
- Be careful not to overcook the bananas, as they will become mushy.
- If you are using a food processor, be sure to pulse the bananas until they are smooth but still have some texture.
- If you are using a blender, be sure to blend the bananas until they are completely smooth.
- For a fun twist, try adding a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream to the top of each spider.
