Once the bananas start to get those brown freckles, Its time to bake banana bread. If your bananas are ripe and ready but your not ready to bake, just put the banas peels and all in a ziplock freezer bag. Then just defrost them in the refrigerator overnight or in the microwave on defrost and your good to go!
