Banana "Ice Cream!"

  • Curb your sweets cravings with Banana "Ice Cream!"

    What you need:
    -A blender
    -2 Bananas
    -Skim Milk
    -Vanilla Extract (I like almond extract)
    Optional:
    -Chocolate Chips
    -Peanut Butter

    Blend together and freeze until slightly firm. Delicious.
  • Sounds yummy! Freezing a banana with chocolate syrup or sugar free chocolate syrup to make a "monkey tail" is delicious too!
  • Any idea how much milk? 1/4 cup? 1/2 cup?

    Thanks
  • I do this alot....I don't really measure. I cut up a banana add a little homeade s/f chocolate syrup and unsweetened almond milk. I just blend until it looks the right consistantcy. I only use 1 banana though.
  • I've got to try this. Thanks!
  • So what is the "right consistency" to get in the blender? Thick? Thin? Like ice cream? This sounds delicious and I like the idea of the almond milk!
  • Ok, I tried this. I don't like the color. And it had a funny taste. Almost like it had cinnamon in it????

    I found a website that gave another way to make it: cut the bananas into 1 inch pieces and freeze them for 1 hour. Then chop them in a food processor with just enough milk to make it look like soft serve.
  • I made this today and it was fantastic! I used a small frozen banana, spoonful of dry sugar-free fat-free butterscotch pudding, spoonful of almond butter, and a spoonful of greek yogurt. Soooo delicious and rich!
