Made with just one main ingredient—ripe bananas—this naturally sweet and guilt-free treat is the perfect dairy-free and vegan alternative to traditional ice cream.

With a prep time of just 10 minutes (plus freezing), this no-cook recipe is ideal for those seeking a quick, healthy indulgence. Serve it fresh for a silky soft-serve consistency or freeze it for a couple of hours for a firmer scoop. Perfect for summer days or anytime you’re craving a nutritious dessert!
Peel the bananas and slice them into thin coins, about 1/4 inch thick.
Place the sliced bananas in a single layer on a baking sheet or tray lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Freeze the banana slices for at least 2 hours or until they are completely solid.
Once frozen, transfer the banana slices to a food processor or a high-powered blender.
Blend the bananas in short bursts, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed. Initially, the bananas will form crumbs, then a thick paste, and eventually a smooth and creamy texture.
If desired, add the vanilla extract for extra flavor during blending. If the mixture is too thick to blend, add 1-2 tablespoons of non-dairy milk or water to help achieve a smooth consistency.
Once the sorbet is smooth, serve immediately for a soft-serve texture, or transfer it to an airtight container and freeze for 1-2 hours for a firmer consistency.
Scoop into bowls and enjoy your homemade, raw banana sorbet!
