Room Temp
Try not to over-buy with bananas. They are best kept at room temperature as they will turn brown in the fridge. Bananas produce ethylene which speeds up ripening, so keep that in mind if placing other fruit and veg close by. Slow ripening by separating your bunch - create a little space between individual bananas.

Put whole bananas still in their skins straight into your freezer. The frozen banana skin will turn brown, however the inside is great for recipes. Freeze peeled bananas or pieces in an airtight container.
