Steps:
- 1. Peel and slice banana or bananas in a microwave safe bowl. Cover with waxed paper. Microwave for one minute. Mash with a fork. Let cool. Ready to use in your favorite recipe when cool and have ripened(turned dark).
- 2. Note: I sliced 3 bananas in a bowl and it only took 1 minute to get them ripe. But every microwave is different. Make sure to let them cool on the cupboard as they turn black and ripen sweetly as they cool. Hugs,Pat
- 3. Note: Here is another banana fact: Place a piece of plastic wrap or foil tightly around the stem ends of a bunch of banana and they will stay fresh and yellow longer and not turn dark- if you want to keep them fresh. It works I've tried it. Have had bananas on the counter for 1 week already still fresh!
