How to Make Homemade Banana Ice Cream
By Mary Spiegelberg
Bring a whole new twist to your evening snack with homemade banana ice cream! Bananas pack a powerful nutrition punch with over 400 mg of potassium and 3 grams of fiber each. Top your banana ice cream with a serving of healthy fats and sweet carbohydrates and you’ve scooped yourself a delicious, well-balanced treat!
How To:
Peel ripe bananas and chop into 1-inch pieces. Freeze the bananas in a freezer-friendly glass bowl for a minimum of 2 hours. Blend banana pieces in a blender or food processor (a food processor works best). Blend until smooth like creamy, soft-serve ice cream. The banana will be quite soft at this point. You may scoop it into a recycled ice-cream jar (for the full effect) and serve immediately, or transfer it back to a freezer-friendly container and freeze until solid. Compliment your banana ice-cream with these delicious toppings below!
