Make you own buttermilk by adding 2 tablespoons lemon juice or vinegar to milk, let stand for 10 minutes

Save ripe bananas for this recipe by peeling and mashing, then place in a gallon size freezer bag. Store flat in freezer. Take out of the freezer 30 minutes before using or pour warm water over the bag.......or just throw the frozen bananas in if you are in a hurry:)!
