Take one banana from the bunch.

Hold the banana in your left hand and grip the stem between your right thumb and forefinger.

Pull the stem downward until the peel splits.

Insert your thumbs into the split of the peel and pull the two sides apart.

Expose the top of the banana. It may be slightly squished from pulling on the stem, but this will not affect the flavor.

Pull open the peel, starting from your original split, and opening it along the length of the banana.

Remove fruit from peel.

Eat and enjoy!
