Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large ripe bananas
- 1 cup fat-free Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup unsweetened almond milk
Instructions
Peel the bananas and slice them into thin rounds.
Place the banana slices in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Freeze the banana slices for at least 2 hours, or until they are completely solid.
In a food processor or high-speed blender, combine the frozen banana slices, fat-free Greek yogurt, honey, vanilla extract, and unsweetened almond milk.
Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides as necessary.
Taste the ice cream and adjust sweetness if desired by adding a little more honey.
Transfer the banana ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for an additional 1-2 hours for a firmer texture.
Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly for easy scooping.
Scoop the ice cream into bowls and enjoy immediately as a refreshing, low-fat treat!
