Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Frozen blueberries
- 3 large Frozen bananas
- 3 tablespoons Tahini
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup or agave nectar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 pinch Pinch of sea salt
Instructions
1. Begin by slicing the bananas into small chunks before freezing them overnight if not already frozen.
2. In a high-speed blender or food processor, add the frozen blueberries, frozen banana pieces, tahini, maple syrup (or agave nectar), vanilla extract, almond milk, and a pinch of sea salt.
3. Blend on high, using a tamper or pausing to scrape down the sides as needed, until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Be careful not to overblend to keep it thick and icy.
4. Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness by adding more maple syrup or agave nectar, if desired.
5. Serve immediately as a soft-serve ice cream or transfer the mixture to a freezer-safe container and freeze for 1-2 hours for a firmer texture.
6. Scoop into bowls and enjoy! Optionally, garnish with extra blueberries, a drizzle of tahini, or a sprinkle of chopped nuts.
