Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 4 ripe bananas
Instructions
- Prepare Bananas: Peel the bananas and slice them into small pieces to ensure even freezing and easy blending.
- Freeze Banana Slices: Arrange the banana slices in a single layer on a baking sheet to prevent them from sticking together, then place in the freezer for at least 2 hours until completely frozen.
- Blend Frozen Bananas: Transfer the frozen banana slices to a food processor and blend until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.
- Serve or Store: Enjoy the banana ice cream immediately for a soft-serve texture, or transfer to an airtight container and freeze further for a firmer consistency.
Notes
- Use ripe bananas with brown spots for maximum sweetness and creaminess.
- You can add flavorings like vanilla extract, cocoa powder, or peanut butter during blending for variety.
- If the bananas don’t blend easily, let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly before blending again.
- For a firmer texture, freeze the blended ice cream for 1-2 hours before serving.
