Notes

  • Storage: Once you’ve made and frosted the bars they will need to be kept in the refrigerator because of the cream cheese frosting. They will keep for a few days, but be sure to keep them in an airtight container. You can also freeze the bars (even if they’re frosted!) for up to two months. Just be sure to tightly wrap them.
  • How long do Banana Bars last? They’ll keep well for a few days in the refrigerator or up to two months in the freezer!
  • How to Freeze: If you want to freeze these all you do is wrap them tightly and pop them in the freezer. They will keep for up to two months. When you want to serve them, allow enough time to thaw them in the refrigerator.
