Peel the ripe bananas and cut them into 1-inch slices.
Place the sliced bananas 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 frozen.
In a high-speed blender or food processor, add the frozen banana slices.
Pour in the full-fat coconut milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt.
Blend the mixture on high speed until it becomes smooth and creamy, pausing to scrape down the sides as needed.
Taste the mixture and adjust for sweetness or vanilla, if desired.
Transfer the banana ice cream into a lidded container.
Place the container in the freezer for 1 to 2 hours for a firmer texture, or serve immediately for a soft-serve consistency.
Scoop the ice cream into bowls to serve and enjoy your homemade vegan creamy banana ice cream.
