🍌 Banana Recipes

Bananas are nature's energy bar — portable, naturally sweet and packed with potassium. They sweeten smoothies without added sugar, create creamy nice cream when frozen and add moisture to baked goods. A medium banana has about 100 calories and 27 grams of natural carbs.

Recipes with banana

Frozen banana magic

Freeze ripe bananas in chunks and you unlock a world of healthy desserts. Blend frozen banana alone for instant nice cream — creamy as soft-serve with zero added sugar. Add cocoa powder for chocolate nice cream. Blend with protein powder for a protein smoothie bowl. Frozen banana is the secret ingredient behind most healthy dessert recipes.

Banana as a natural sweetener

Ripe banana replaces sugar in pancakes, muffins, oatmeal and energy balls. One mashed banana has the same sweetening power as two tablespoons of sugar but with fiber, potassium and vitamins. Use overripe bananas — the browner the skin, the sweeter the banana and the better it works in recipes.
