A smoothie: put the bananas and orange juice to cover them in a blender and blend to the consistency you prefer, if too thick, just add more OJ and blend again.
Mash the bananas and add to pancake mix. Delicious!
Cut in chunks and dip in chocolate. If this is done and frozen, they taste like banana flavoured ice chocs.
remove skins and lay bananas in an oven proof dish.
dot with butter all over. then sprinkle over brown sugar, some orange juice laced with rum is nice as well. then cover with foil and bake in a medium oven until soft and golden....yummy.

Banana bread is always good.
Don't have time for that? Throw them into the freezer peel and all. I have used frozen ripe bananas for bread (just let them defrost) and homemade banana ice cream.
I also use frozen bananas for smoothies everyday. Works great! Just run the banana under hot water for a minute then you should be ables to take the peel off easily. Then just blend with other fresh or frozen fruit.
fruit salad--
cut up the bananas with apples--add raisins and a bit of mayo---stir--
Banana Bread is always good with super ripe bananas. MMMM, makes me want some right now....
