  2. Mash bananas in a medium bowl.
  3. Add eggs and cake mix and mix by hand with a wooden spoon.

Notes

  • Ripe bananas. This post gives tips on How to Ripen Bananas faster.
  • Flavor variations. Use chocolate or strawberry cake mix.
  • Muffins. Divide the batter into about 24 muffin tins. Bake at 350°F for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. 
  • Mini Loaf. Fill 4-5 mini bread loaf pans and bake at 350° for about 22-28 minutes, or until cooked throughout. 
  • Store, loosely covered, at room temperature for 2-3 days, in the fridge for up to a week, or wrap with plastic and again with foil and keep in the freezer for up to 3 months.
