Instructions

  • Prepare a baking sheet by laying a piece of parchment paper flat onto a baking sheet.

  • Place into the freezer for at least 30 minutes or until bananas are hard and completely frozen.

  • Place bananas into a freezer safe bag. Remove all air from your freezer safe bag and seal tightly.
  • Finally, store bananas in your freezer for easy access to frozen bananas throughout the week!
