We found the ultimate banana hack and we just had to share.

Do you ever buy a bunch of bananas and find the ripening process just TOO quick? There are only so many bananas a gal can eat, and with our busy schedules, we can’t allow brown bananas to get the better of us.

And with the ongoing cost of living crisis, we don’t want to be wasting money on fruit that goes off in a handful of days.

And when in doubt, make banana bread.
