Step-by-Step Instructions
First, I like to start by mashing the ripe bananas in my mixing bowl. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and creamier the mixture will be. I use a fork to mash them up until I have a smooth consistency, with just a few lumps for texture. The sweet smell of banana fills my kitchen, and I can already tell this is going to be amazing!
