Story
|
No matter how careful I am when I buy bananas, I always end up with two bananas that sit on my counter until they're brown. It seems to be the law around my house; leave two bananas uneaten. This is a great use-it-up recipe because not only do you get to use your ripe bananas, but the cinnamon and nutmeg that seems to multiply in your cupboard after the holidays gets used up as well. Enjoy!
