For soft and bruised bananas, we throw them in smoothies.
My ex-wife won a blue ribbon at the state fair for her banana bread. She told me it was important to have bananas that were very overripe, almost completely black.

Interesting. My mom waits until the bananas are brown/black, then freezes them until she has a chance to make the banana bread. I did this the first time I tried her recipe, but when the bananas were thawed, they became liquid. I was too scared to use them.

I leave my bananas until they're black for banana bread too, so that when you do mash them they turn into a liquidy mush. They impart a lot of sweetness and that rich banana flavor the longer they're left to ripen.
Freezing then defrosting and using them for baking is perfectly fine, even if they do get seriously mushy!
No it's really not that bad actually. It's a lovely place I live in, but there's always one who spoils it for the rest of us.....
You've got that right....I've looked on google street view at many, many nice homes in nice neighborhoods, but there is ALWAYS one s c h m u c k there to mess it up.

Haha! No, she didn't use any that had the skin split. I know it sounds kinda weird to use overripe bananas, but she did win the prize.
