To soften bananas for banana pudding, you can place them in a paper bag with an apple or a ripe banana for a day or two. The ethylene gas released by the fruit will speed up the ripening process. Alternatively, you can bake the bananas in their peels at a low temperature (around 300Β°F or 150Β°C) for about 15-20 minutes until they're soft. Once softened, mash the bananas and use them in your pudding recipe for a smooth texture and sweet flavor.
