Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces ripe bananas
- 1 cup almond butter
- 1 cup coconut cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon coconut flour
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 cup dark chocolate chips (paleo-friendly)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a mixing bowl, mash 2 ripe bananas until smooth. Add almond butter, coconut flour, honey, baking soda, and sea salt. Mix until it forms a dough.
Fold in the dark chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon, portion the dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart.
Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes or until they are lightly golden and set. Remove from oven and let them cool completely on a wire rack.
While the cookies are baking, slice the remaining 2 bananas and place them in a blender along with coconut cream and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Pour the banana ice cream base into a freezer-safe container.
Once the cookies are cooled, crumble them into medium pieces and fold them gently into the ice cream mixture.
Cover the container and freeze for at least 4-5 hours or until the ice cream is firm.
Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for about 5-10 minutes to soften slightly, then scoop and enjoy!
