Banana Ice Cream
Ditch the store-bought ice cream loaded with sugar and preservatives and make this one-ingredient banana "nice cream." It’s naturally sweet, creamy, and endlessly customizable.
Ingredients
- 4 ripe bananas
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ½ cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Begin by peeling the ripe bananas and slicing them into coins.
- Spread the banana slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for about 2 hours, or until completely solid.
- Once frozen, place the banana slices into a food processor, blending until they form a smooth, creamy consistency.
- Add the heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the processor. Blend again until fully combined and fluffy.
- Transfer the mixture into a freezer-safe container, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Cover and freeze for at least 3 hours or until firm.
- Scoop and serve your creamy banana ice cream in bowls or cones, enjoying the rich flavors!
