I have been super into cooking and baking all summer. About to make some banana bread and coconut macaroons. Mom once told me you could freeze browning bananas for bread, so that's a little guilt put to rest. Here's the banana bread recipe - I am going to add walnuts, a little fiber powder, and use omega enriched canola. Macaroon recipe to come - they are SO yummy!
Pretty low point banana bread
Ingredients
1 1/4 cup(s) all-purpose flour
1/2 cup(s) unpacked brown sugar
1/2 tsp table salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp baking powder
3 tsp canola oil
1 large egg(s), beaten
2 medium egg white(s), beaten
3 large banana(s), ripe
1 cup(s) uncooked old fashioned oats
Instructions
• Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, stir together dry ingredients. Add oil and eggs; mix thoroughly.
• In a smaller bowl, mash bananas with a potato masher or fork. Add bananas and oatmeal to batter.
• Spray a loaf pan with cooking spray. Pour batter into pan and bake until top of loaf is firm to touch, 45 to 55 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool in pan for 5 minutes. Flip out and cool on a wire rack for another 10 minutes.

Mmmm, sounds dope! I also heard once that freezing bananas gives them a texture particularly good for baking.
