Is it ok to use regular bananas in a banana muffin recipe that calls for very ripe bananas?

Will the muffins still turn out well?Is it ok to use regular bananas in a banana muffin recipe that calls for very ripe bananas?
it shouldn't affect it too much, just make sure they're mashed up enough, and possibly add a little extra sugar . :) good luck!Is it ok to use regular bananas in a banana muffin recipe that calls for very ripe bananas?
!!!NO!!!
riper ones are just softer. it wont make much difference.
I do. Just make sure you mash them really good so they are not chunky.
The only reason that ripe bannana's are better is because they hold more flavor of the bannana when used in a recipe like this. Bannana's that are not as ripe willl still work, however.
for sure, but mash them first with a fork before tossing into the mixer or they will thump and bump and toss out whatever you already have creamed!!!





The riper the banana the higher the sugar content!!





I freeze bananas by peeling, sprinkling with lemon juice and putting in ziplock bags. Defrost in microwave and toss into muffin, pancake, cake, icing batters!
Yes, but ripe bananas have more flavor.
they wont taste very good but they should turn out ok
They should be okay but just won't taste as good.
No, it's not. Wait until the peels are black and the bananas are soft.
it will probbaly not be as sweet
yes...just mash em up real good. sometimes I like to leave my bananas chunky
no, i have tried to make banana bread before with fresh bananas and it didnt turn out at all, when the bananas are really ripe they give the muffins or bread a better flavour always use ripe bananas in breads and muffins
of course it is! The riper they are, the stronger the flavor (not necessarily a good thing), and the easier they are to mash...but a yellow (not green) banana is perfectly fine to use! You'll just have to mash harder:) ... btw, when you have very ripe bananas, you can freeze them, to use later in baking recipes. The skin will turn black, but the banana will be fine....
No its not.Wait till the peel blackens then take it out and add.


By the way mini bananas taste better!!





Hope this helps
It will come out okay, but very ripe bananas are moister, softer, mushier, and do work better in the muffin.





You can quickly ripen your banana to ';very ripe'; by putting it in a warm (about 200 degrees) oven for about 5-10 minutes. (toaster oven works, but preheat first). When the skin becomes brown and spotted, you're all set.
They will be lighter in colour and have less flavour. It's best to use ripe ones.
