When selecting bananas for banana bread, choose ones that are ripe with yellow skin and some brown spots. These bananas will be sweeter and have a stronger flavor, which is ideal for banana bread. Avoid green or overly ripe bananas for the best results.
The bananas should be over ripe for banana bread - not unripe.
The best stage for using bananas for making banana bread is when the bananas are very ripe. This allows the bananas to become very soft but sweet, which helps add flavour to the bread.
To make banana bread with only two bananas, mash the bananas well and use them in the recipe as directed. You may need to adjust the other ingredients slightly to compensate for the reduced banana quantity.

Over-ripened bananas taste better because the flavor is more concentrated. So, when you mix the banana with other ingredients you still can taste the banana flavor. Also, the bananas are more mushy, which gives a softer, moist bread.
I've never heard of such a thing. Perhaps you forgot to mash the bananas?
No, otherwise we wouldn't be able to use them for banana bread
Not historically. Bananas don't grow in Ireland.
Absolutely! They are great to use for banana muffins, banana bread, chocolate covered frozen bananas, and milkshakes. Place bananas in a zip to bag and remove as much air as possible. They should be good for 4-6 weeks.
NO, apparently bananas have little or no gluten. Do a Google search on "gluten free banana bread" and you'll find dozens of hits, which uses 3-4 bananas in the recipe.
Bananas do not refrigerate well. They get somewhat mushy after refrigeration. They can be used in baking, such as in banana bread.
The skin blackens from the cold but if you like your bananas mushy and not as sweet, it is fine. Or freeze the bananas until you can use them in a smoothy or banana bread.
