Dole Mini Bananas (12 oz)

Dole Mini Bananas are nature's perfect snack, conveniently sized and packed with potassium and natural sweetness. These petite powerhouses are approximately half the size of regular bananas, making them ideal for children, portion control, or a quick energy boost on the go. Each 12-ounce bunch contains several individual mini bananas, perfect for lunchboxes, after-school snacks, or a pre-workout pick-me-up. Their creamy texture and subtly sweet flavor make them a versatile ingredient in smoothies, desserts, and even savory dishes. In many Caribbean and Latin American cultures, bananas are a staple food, enjoyed in countless ways. Think of fried plantains (platanos maduros or tostones), banana bread, or even green banana porridge. While these mini bananas are sweeter than plantains, they can still be incorporated into similar dishes for a unique twist. Try adding sliced mini bananas to your morning oatmeal or yogurt, or use them as a topping for pancakes or waffles. For a healthier dessert, dip them in melted dark chocolate and sprinkle with chopped nuts. They're also fantastic blended into smoothies with spinach, berries, and almond milk for a nutritious and delicious breakfast or snack. Dole Mini Bananas are a good source of potassium, which is essential for maintaining healthy blood pressure and muscle function. They also contain fiber, which aids in digestion and promotes feelings of fullness. These bananas are naturally low in sodium and fat, making them a guilt-free treat. Store them at room temperature until ripe, then refrigerate to slow down the ripening process. Keep them away from other fruits like apples and avocados, as they can accelerate ripening. Whether you're looking for a convenient snack, a healthy ingredient, or a taste of the tropics, Dole Mini Bananas are a delicious and nutritious choice that the whole family will love.
