You can also do what I do -- peel it, wrap the dark, soft banana in plastic wrap, put it on a freezer bag, and stick it in the freezer. Use it frozen in a smoothie or use it thawed in a recipe such as banana bread. Frozen bananas thaw very quickly.
I peel them and toss them in a freezer bag without wrapping them. They do stick together a bit but I've not had any problems getting them apart when I want to make smoothies or bake with them. They normally sit in the freezer for at most a month or two before they get used.
