How do you use the banana for a sweetner in the coffee?

I use a Moka pot. Just did not feel like getting into the technicalities of coffee. I'm actually SUPER snobby about it and it has to be roasted within the past week. I use the Moka pot because it is so forgiving as far as the grind goes and I have yet to buy the $400 grinder that is really a necessity if you want decent espresso. I probably never will, because I like the freedom of not owning many things.
The Moka pot is not real espresso, it is it's own brewing method, and a personal favorite of mine. Second only to real espresso in my book.
You wish you had not gotten me started, don't you?
To use the banana as sweetener, blend it with the milk before heating, with the whole concoction if you have a blender that does not explode with hot stuff in it (mine does), or if you are trying this cold, use a frozen banana half & frozen pumpkin.
