I always buy produce with the best of intentions, but it's not uncommon to get busy and forget about my plans. Then it's too late. Bananas are a little more inclined to give you a second chance. Very ripe bananas are the best state for your baked banana goodies. Don't have time right now to bake? That's OK too, because they freeze very well. Just peel them and place in a freezer baggie, they will keep for a couple months. (However, if the bananas have any mold then you need to toss them) The enzymes will continue to break them down a little while frozen, so they will have even more of a banana aroma and flavor in your baked goods. You will need to thaw them in the fridge and pour off excess juice before you use them.
Here are some SCD/GAPS friendly ideas for using bananas:
