We went to our local tailgate food give-away this morning and got 4 clear boxes of mini bananas. They are sooo cute! LOL. And still so green! So, I will set them aside for a couple of days until they ripen up a bit. I've never had the mini bananas before, so I am anxious to try them.

I've read that bananas can be mashed and frozen to use later in baking. Has anyone ever tried this? If I used it later to make banana bread, would it have the same taste/texture as if I had used fresh?
