The best way to utilise an over riped banana is to bake a cake/bread or muffin.Banana is one fruit which will always be been in my kitchen pantry and I need to yell at my kids to eat them.At times they might be some over ripe banana which can be consumed as such.I always use those in my bakes and you can check few of my banana bakes like eggless banana bread., Nutella banana bread choc banana muffins,Ragi- banana muffins , banana choc brownies. etc.
Coming to this bread ,the basic of this is that of banana bread with added cocoa powder and choc chips and hence I named it double chocolate banana bread.Just try this when yoy are left with over riped bananas and pair with your tea/coffee.
