    I know nothing about cooking to be fair, but I'm very suspicious of the "ripening" bananas in an oven advice. The first thing is that "ripen" should probably have huge air quotes around it, because the underlying process is utterly different to the enzymatic process of normal ripening. In particular, you seemed to judge whether the bananas were sufficiently ripened by seeing a few strips of black on them, just like you were judging the ripeness of a normally ripened banana. But the most reliable-looking sources on the internet say that if you "ripen" bananas in the oven, you should bake them until they are totally black instead. And also they specifically said that it's not really ripening them, and that it was a poor substitute for real ripening — i.e. a good last resort measure, but not something to be considered equivalent.

    Massive props for including weight measurements in your ingredients list. I was about to write a rant about the "how to measure flour accurately by volume" part of the video is rendered obsolete by accurate digital scales ubiquitously available these days, but you're hooking up us digital scale nerds as well!! Thanks!

    the chaos is cute, but also is the laziness a vibe that i can adopt at my bar or nah? you can't be mad about the lack of frozen bananans when you cant keep unmoldy labneh at your house when you are a pro chef filming recipe videos from your personal kitchen, am i right?

    👑 Once you try Labneh, you will NEVER bother with yoghurt or sour cream again. It's just the queen of sour 🍌 but how can you make banana cake without big walnuts?!

    Ok. Two things. First. I half watched this video the other morning when I woke up wayyyy tooooo early and then fell asleep. I then had dreams about baking it with you and we messed it up and forgot the sugar. So bad. Secondly- we can get frozen bananas in Australia at the supermarket! Maybe we are just more advanced hahaha

    I have a theory on a lack of frozen bananas in the stores. I don't know about you, but I've never seen frozen avocado slices or mango slices or orange pieces either. So it might have to do with the peel/shell of the plant, that's it's just too expensive or otherwise not economically viable to peel all of this stuff.
    Just a thought.

    Molly is there a reason you stray away from weights? I feel like a lot of the world has got on the scale measurement bandwagon. Never fails.

    Just wondering.

    Great recipe btw, labneh sounds like a very cool addition to it. Can't wait to make it !

    I really like her vibe! Haven't seen any other videos of Molly besides her Bon Appetit days but this is so refreshing. Not afraid to make mistakes and to swear a bit. Just like any other human being but also really funny. Subbed.

    I would have thought that in 2022 even the most modest ordinary cook would have moved to weighing ingredients instead of this truly weird scooping levelling lesson. It’s so inconvenient and inconsistent.

    Great video, but if I could make a suggestion it would be to include metric measurements. It also makes instructions on how exactly to fill a measuring cup obsolete and may be helpful for an international audience.

    Honestly love how it was just Molly this episode and not a bunch of rando cameo seekers.

    Also girl make some “Moldy Bazneh” tees and tanks and we’ll wear the hell out of them.
