Don't think I could use a fork unless they were softer than this.<br /><br />Another reason I leave in skin is I don't have to bother about putting them into a container or zip lock bag but I do admit they take up more room.Lizardmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06876452952190794834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-367055722836820207.post-8536916587003457042011-01-08T00:01:28.431-08:002011-01-08T00:01:28.431-08:00I must leave mine out longer than you then but the...I must leave mine out longer than you then but they are not out long before I squish then beat with the fork.<br />I don't have a blender and a fork is easier than the old hand beaters.<br />I prefer leaving the banana in it's skin as I think they last longer and I have sometimes used them after 6 months and they have been fine. The ones I skin and put in bags don't last as long but I only use snaplocks.<br />Barb.Barb.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11383714327462070532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-367055722836820207.post-31582739065461502652011-01-07T12:59:20.885-08:002011-01-07T12:59:20.885-08:00Sherrie, I am going to try your suggestion of peel...Sherrie, I am going to try your suggestion of peeling them first. I am just time poor with a 2 year old that shoving them straight in is easiest but I do admit they take up more room.<br /><br />Barb, how do you beat with a fork?? Isn't the banana too hard to do this?? You can flavour it with lots of things, some cocoa powder, some vanilla, mango, berries and like Sherrie said orange - hadn't thought of that one but I am going to try it.Lizardmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06876452952190794834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-367055722836820207.post-80897550079054358342011-01-07T03:22:55.945-08:002011-01-07T03:22:55.945-08:00My vegan daughter *invented* what she called "...My vegan daughter *invented* what she called "nice-cream" about 7 years ago. We do it similar to you, I don't add the water and I use a fork to beat, but I haven't tried adding fruit yet. It is really yum.<br />I keep bananas in the freezer just for this.<br /><br />Barb.Barb.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11383714327462070532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-367055722836820207.post-56617327353637457732011-01-07T03:04:09.162-08:002011-01-07T03:04:09.162-08:00Hi Maria, another one of my favourites is I use an...Hi Maria, another one of my favourites is I use an orange. I peel and cut in half to remove seeds and through in to blender with a few frozen bananas a little bit of water and blend well its like a really thick smoothie very delicious on a hot day or night. I peel all my bananas and put them in a plastic bag in the freezer they take up less space, I use mine straight from the freezer and put them into my blender !Sherriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01413758774374975978noreply@blogger.com
