Bananas and Breakfast

We always have ripe bananas left over at our house that no one will eat. I hate to let them go to waste, so I always find myself whipping up some sort of baked good using them. My husband loves when I make something he can eat for breakfast on his way to work, so in this post I have included a yummy and nutritious breakfast friendly recipe using bananas. Give them a try!
