I have a number of ways of using up old bananas – these are my usual suspects:

• grown-up banana bread (by Nigella)
• banana muffins with sunflower seeds – a staunch favourite, and the batter freezes well
• banana and bran flake muffins – newly discovered, and meaning I now keep bran flakes in the larder!

I’ve spotted a delicious looking recipe for banana and oat pancakes on Mel Bedggood’s blog (recommended reading), which I shall be adding to my list.  Looks like an excellent candidate for Sunday breakfast this week!
