Notes

Use ripe bananas for maximum sweetness and flavor. Adjust the amount of ginger based on your spice tolerance. For meal prep, you can pre-portion into jars and refrigerate; they make a great grab-and-go breakfast. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days; reheat gently with a splash of almond milk.
