1 Ingredients

Qty	Item
2 large 300 g	Overripe Bananas
2 tbsp 30 ml	Unsweetened Almond Milk
0.5 tsp 2.5 ml	Vanilla Extract
1 pinch 0.1 g	Sea Salt

2 Instructions

Step 1. Peel the overripe bananas and slice them into 1/2-inch thick coins.

Step 2. Arrange the slices in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until completely solid.

Step 3. Place the frozen banana slices into a high-powered blender or food processor.

Step 4. Pulse the bananas until they reach a crumbly consistency. Scrape down the sides with a spatula.

Step 5. Add the almond milk, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend on high speed until the mixture suddenly transforms from chunky to smooth and creamy.

Step 6. Serve immediately for a soft-serve texture, or transfer to a container and freeze for 1 hour for a firmer, scoopable consistency.

·
Use bananas with plenty of brown spots for maximum natural sweetness.
·
Freeze your banana slices in a single layer so they don't clump together, which makes blending much easier.
·
Add a tablespoon of peanut butter or cocoa powder for an instant flavor variation.
·
If using a standard blender, you may need a splash more liquid to help the blades move.

? Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this without a high-speed blender?

Yes, a food processor is actually ideal for this recipe as it has a wider base and can handle frozen fruit with less liquid than a blender.

How long does nice cream stay fresh?

It is best served immediately. However, you can store it in the freezer for up to a week. Just let it sit at room temperature for 10 minutes to soften before scooping.

Can I add other fruits?

Absolutely! Frozen mango, strawberries, or blueberries work great, but keep the banana base to ensure the creamy 'ice cream' texture.

Why is my nice cream runny?

This usually happens if too much liquid was added or the bananas weren't fully frozen. Try adding more frozen fruit or popping it back in the freezer for 30 minutes.
