Ingredients

  • 2 frozen bananas, cut into thirds
  • 1-2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk (or any milk you prefer)
  • 1-2 teaspoons maple syrup, honey or monk fruit

Instructions

  • Pop bananas into a blender or food processor and blend until the bananas have a smooth and creamy consistency (just like ice cream). Depending on how powerful your blender or processor is, your bananas may clunk around a bit at the beginning BUT just give them a minute. Once they start to break down, they turn into this lovely, creamy treat.

  • If you want, you can skip the milk addition altogether, but I like to add a little in. I usually use just a tablespoon or two along with the maple syrup. Blend until thick and creamy. Enjoy!

Notes

Storage recommendation: If you happen to have any banana ice cream leftover, simply store it in an airtight container in the freezer. It will keep in the freezer for up to 3 months. Before enjoying, thaw at room temperature until slightly softened.
