Do you freeze yours with or without the peels on? I used to throw them in
the freezer as-is, until I heard a tip to peel them before freezing and
I've never looked back! I make a lot of banana bread (and muffins) and I
love having banana mash on hand when I'm requested to make banana bread
*right now*.

I just put them in the freezer with peel on! It never occurred to me to
peel them first.

Do you mash it before you freeze it?
