Freezing bananas

I'm about to freeze some for her mesh feeder tomorrow. Do I remove the peel? Cut them in half/pieces first? Put the whole thing in, peel and all?

Thanks!

    I freeze them in the peel.  Then I just cut off pieces as I need them.

    Great! That's super easy :) How long should they last? They are pretty yellow, but not green anywhere nor brown....so right in between as ripeness goes......

    it's actually much easier to take off the peel, slice them in the size you need and place in a freezer bag.

     okay, i guess i can't lose either way :) will one way ripen them faster? or do bananas keep when frozen like most other things?

    I guess it all depends on when you've got more time.  I usually throw the bananas in the freezer when I'm cooking or straightening up the kitchen and worry about them later.  But if you're always in a rush at DC's mealtime then peeling and cutting ahead of time would be more convenient. 

    I don't think any ripening should happen either way.  If you do freeze them in the peels, just be warned that the peels will turn black.  The banana inside will be fine.
