Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Frozen banana slices
- 0.25 cups Unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of choice)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Cocoa powder (optional, for chocolate flavor)
- 1 tablespoon Peanut butter or almond butter (optional)
- 0.5 cups Fresh or frozen berries (optional)
Instructions
Place the frozen banana slices into a high-speed blender or food processor.
Add the unsweetened almond milk and vanilla extract to the blender.
If using cocoa powder, peanut butter, or berries, add them to the blender now for additional flavors.
Blend on high speed, pausing occasionally to scrape down the sides as needed, until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy. This may take 2-3 minutes of blending.
Taste the ice cream base and adjust flavors if desired, such as adding a touch more vanilla or cocoa powder.
Once smooth, immediately scoop the ice cream into bowls and serve. For a firmer texture, you can freeze it in an airtight container for 15-20 minutes before serving.
Enjoy your homemade sugar-free instant ice cream!
