Sorry we’ve been slightly m.i.a. on the blog lately. I just wanted to post a quick bed time snack for everyone: Banana Ice Cream! Yes, we’re not lying here, banana ice cream is now the perfect bed time snack!!
For this recipe you will need:
- Frozen Banana(s)
- Bob and I now continually stock up our freezer with “bad bananas”. They are perfect for ice cream or when making banana bread or muffins!
- Food processor or blender
- Milk or water (I use water)
- Any other items if you want a new “flavor” of ice cream (i.e. Saskatoon berries, strawberries, almonds, chocolate syrup, the options are pretty much endless)
Rather than re-inventing the wheel, I found a short YouTube video that perfectly explains the recipe:
Easy hey!! This little monster is the perfect healthy snack, satisfies the sweet tooth, is incredibly easy to make and is just really cool to impress the friends with (most of which will not believe it when you tell them that you can make ice cream from just a banana). Let us know what you think or what kind of flavors you made with your banana ice cream!
Adios Monkeys!
Can you sub milk/water with rum? Actually, let me test this in the next few days and get back to you.
AMAZING, RIGHT?!
peanut butter > nutella, fyi. unless the nutella is melted & drizzled on top. otherwise, the flavour is pretty much lost if it’s blended with the bananas. ALSO! you can do it sans milk and it’s less melty.
The video says “BUT them in the freezer”. Also, there’s no food in that freezer. It’s weird.
I’m trying this tomorrow morning before work.
