Peel the bananas and slice them into thin coins, about 1/4-inch thick.
Place the banana slices in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Freeze the banana slices for at least 2 hours, or until completely frozen solid.
Once frozen, add the banana slices to a high-speed blender or food processor.
Blend the bananas on high speed, scraping down the sides as necessary, until the mixture becomes creamy and smooth. This may take a few minutes.
If needed, add 1-2 tablespoons of unsweetened almond milk to help with blending.
For added flavor, mix in 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract after the bananas are blended (optional).
Serve immediately for a soft-serve consistency or transfer to an airtight container and freeze for 1-2 hours to firm up into a more traditional ice cream texture.
Scoop and enjoy your healthy, Weight Watchers-friendly banana ice cream!
