Using banana skins as an ingredient has unexpected benefits
Using banana skins as an ingredient has unexpected benefits
A study last year found that every time you throw away a banana peel, you're missing out on a great snack. The study, published in ACS Food Science & Technology, found that if banana peels are blanched, dried, and ground into a flour, they can be turned into baked goods that taste just as good as wheat-based products. And it turns out it's actually really food for you. Consuming products made from banana peel means you consume minerals and cancer-fighting minerals. Sugar cookies that were enriched with banana peels not only tasted the same as peel-free sugar cookies, but contained much more fibre, magnesium, potassium, and antioxidant compounds. In 2021, a study on banana peel cake found the yellow skin of the fruit provided a natural food colour as well as a nutritional boost. Whilst a 2016 study found that substituting up to 10 per cent of wheat flower with banana peel flour can enrich baked bread with higher protein, carbohydrate, and fat contents. Not only is it a healthy food option, it also helps reduce food waste! And the same goes for other fruits too, such a mango skin, what was found to boost a cake's antioxidant properties and improve its flavour. Just make sure to add the right amount of banana peel to your bakes and makes. Adding too much banana peel flour did result in the study's cookies going somewhat brown and hard, possibly from all the extra fibre. 7.5 percent of banana peel flour seems to be the sweet spot, with the texture and taste hitting an appealing balance. So maybe reconsider next time you go to thrown a banana skin away. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.

Weird Al shares shockingly low amount he makes from Spotify Wrapped
Weird Al shares shockingly low amount he makes from Spotify Wrapped
Satirical artist Weird Al has shared just how little musicians are making from Spotify - even if they're in your Wrapped's top five artists. Users received personal 'thank you' video messages from artists if they made it into their top five list, however, Weird Al used the opportunity to remind everyone that the streams don't equal cash. “It’s my understanding that I had over 80 million streams on Spotify this year, so, if I’m doing the math right that means I earned… $12", he told fans, adding he'd be using the money to buy a sandwich.

Kris Jenner 'really hurt' by Kourtney Kardashian's public baby announcement
Kris Jenner 'really hurt' by Kourtney Kardashian's public baby announcement
Kris Jenner has opened up about her feelings towards Kourtney Kardashian's pregnancy announcement at Travis Barker's Blink 182 concert. Earlier this year, Kourtney made headlines for holding a sign reading 'Travis I'm Pregnant!' during his Los Angeles gig. In the finale of The Kardashians, Kris was asked whether she "enjoyed" the big reveal, to which she said "yeah". It was then that Khloe jumped in and shared that her mother had seen it on the news. The momager went on to explain the situation, saying: "We'd left the TV on the night before and woke up very early in the morning to see Kourtney holding the sign. I thought I was being punked - I was like did somebody put this up? - and then I saw it was ABC News." While Kris acknowledged she knew her daughter was pregnant, she did not expect her to announce it at the concert. Khloe claimed Kris' feelings were "really hurt," but Kourtney simply said she "forgot". "She forgot she had a family," Kris said. "That's what pregnancy brain does, it's truly wild how that happens." In another snippet, Kourtney gave her side of the story, adding: "I just truly didn't think to invite them to the LA concert and didn't think they would care to come. I did tell Khloé about it and she asked me to change it to San Diego. "[...] It's not about you. It was truly just our way to tell the world. It was about me and Travis, not about anything else."
