Banana Nice-Cream

This is going to be your favourite ice cream alternative. My husband and I call this banana "nice-cream" because it's so nice. It's also super easy to make. All you'll need is a food processor and some frozen bananas. I'll give you some options to add extra flavours too, but all you really need is the bananas.

Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 medium Bananas ripe
Optional if you want to try new flavours (add one, not all)
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Essence
  • 2 tsp Cacao powder
  • handful Frozen Raspberries or Other Fruit
  • 1 tsp Honey for Extra Sweetness

Equipment

  • 1 Food Processor not just a blender

Method
 

  1. Remove the banana skins and chop each banana into disc pieces no more than 2cm (1") wide. Place all the banana pieces into a Tupperware and store in the freezer overnight, at least 8 hours.
  2. Place the frozen banana pieces into a food processor and blitz until it sticks. Remove the lid and stir the contents, then continue blitzing. You'll need to stir multiple times until it suddenly turns into a thick creamy texture. Make sure there are no lumps before removing it from the food processor. If you want to add additional ingredients as listed above, wait until the banana is creamy before adding them. Now it's ready to serve.

Notes

Storage

This dairy free ice cream doesn't store well. Re-freezing it is not recommended so go ahead and eat it straight away. Don't way long as it will quickly melt.
