do you have to use bananas in every recipe?

No, i have not used bananas. I usually use frozen frozen fruit with sugar-free fat-free vanilla yogurt. The yogurt makes the texture to be smooth and creamy. I evenly mix the frozen fruit with yogurt and Splenda first before adding the ingredients down in the the shoot.

It depends on what you want to make . Yes a lot of them do use bananas but their are some that don't.

No, but it does help to make it creamier and more like ice cream. For example, if you just use berries you will get sorbet.

No, but if you want to make soft food smoother (bananas, avacado) or take fibers out of food that are soft (strings on cooked beans, skins from cooked peas) it works well. You'd still need a blender or food processor.

I don't know for sure. I'm guessing you could mash other fruits but the bananas are what gives the dessert that creamy (yogurt texture).

the recipes do say use bananas. Haven't tried it without. Actually gave up on the machine. Wasted my money on that one.

I dont think so. The big banana worked in the begining. Now it doesnt work at all. After contacting the manufacturer several times and being told they would replace the product I still havent received anything. I still havent even heard from them. Good luck.

Are you really baking banana bread in an 18X12 pan or did your question get posted to the wrong bakeware item? Banana bread, like most quickbread recipes, usually call for a loaf pan. If you're using a loaf pan, I suspect the amount of fat/eggs/liquid is not proportionally correct. Epicurious and Cook's Illustrated have good banana bread recipes if you think you need to compare yours to some other recipes.

Yes, but I find that this is unnecessary. Cook your fruit first for best results. I've done tomatoes and apples.

Yes. I used very soft foods like ripe avocado, banana, steamed sweet potatoes. You can create a pretty fine mash by adding some milk or formula.

I use the banana leaf in the oven all the time. It is fine. It does indicate oven safe on the label.

Wow...I don't know! I'd live to know the answer tho, if someone does. It'd be great to not take up all that room in the 'fridge and still have excellent bananas all week. Seems to me tho, the cold is probably necessary? Pls let me know if you get a definitive answer!

yes, you can. I blend with with half of a banana ,some berries and vanilla almond ,soy or coconut milk and a cup of ice.

Yes. It easily mixes with water, milk, formula And breast milk. It doesnt taste appealing so i mash a banana and mix it with it to get my son to eat it v

Joy, I haven't mixed vegetables but I did a banana. Suggestion-cut the vegetables very fine before you put in glass to mix.

I have not used this for banana bread, as bananas are taboo in my house (hubby doesn't like them). But everything else I've tried with it works great. Hit Bob's red Mill website for a banana bread recipe. I bet they have one

GAYATRI No this type banana will not produce ediable fruit but there are many banana plants that can be purchased that will produce fruit that you can eat anther depending on where you live that an when the plant has about 35 leaves an once they are established they usualy get a new leaf every week or one every week an a half from what i have read hope this helps :)
