The not so good thing about banana is, once its overripe you can barely have it and most of the time it ends up in trash. However, the good thing is, it can be used to make muffins, banana bread and banana cake. As weird the banana cake sounds, it actually tastes great.
Nuts are a great addition to these muffins. Grab it on the go or freeze it for later.
P.S: There is a version of vegan-eggless banana bread too if you are interested.
