Banana "Ice Cream"


DAIRY FREE/GLUTEN FREE/VEGAN/VEGETARIAN/PALEO

My husband absolutely loved this! It has the same perfect texture of ice cream and is so easy to make. My favorite part…it makes use of over ripe bananas so I don’t have to throw them out.

The original recipe had one step that I changed. That was how to freeze the bananas. I usually purchase more bananas than I need for the sole purpose of making oodles of banana bread for bake sales. I break them up when get over ripe put them into Ziploc freezer bags until the next bake sale comes up. 


Ingredient
over ripe bananas

Recipe
  1. Peel bananas and freeze one of several ways: whole (this will take longer and be harder to blend in a processor); sliced and on a tray (this will take less time, but require more space in your freezer); sliced/broken and frozen in Ziploc freezer bags (make sure to the final frozen banana pieces do not form too large of chunks that they can’t fit into your blender or processor)
  2. When bananas are frozen place in blender/processor and blend until creamy like ice cream.
  3. Eat immediately for “soft ice cream” texture or store in an air tight container and freeze a little more for “hard ice cream” texture.
