Bananas are exotic fruits, and therefore they do not always arrive to us fully ripe.
Therefore, it is important to know how to quickly make them ripen at home.
There are several simple ways to ripen bananas in an hour or within a day.
Ways to Ripen Bananas
The first method will help you get ripe bananas in just an hour. To do this, you will need to spread the unpeeled fruit in an oven preheated to 150 degrees on a baking sheet and wait an hour.
The banana skins will turn black, but the fruit itself will be soft and tasty.
You can ripen the fruit overnight. Place the bananas in a bag with an apple, avocado, or other fruit that produces ethylene, the gas that causes fruit to ripen faster.
If you have green bananas in front of you, you can turn them yellow in just a couple of days. A brown paper bag will help you with this.
Bananas themselves also emit ethylene, which promotes ripening, so if they are kept in a tightly sealed paper container for a couple of days, they will ripen on their own.
