Instructions

Prepare bananas

Peel and slice the bananas. Place them in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze for at least 2 hours.

Pro tip: The riper the banana, the sweeter the ice cream.

Blend classic flavour

Add frozen bananas, vanilla extract, and almond milk to a blender. Blend until smooth and creamy.

Pro tip: Stop and scrape down the sides if needed.

Blend chocolate peanut butter flavour

Add frozen bananas, cocoa powder, and peanut butter to a blender. Blend until smooth and combined.

Pro tip: Adjust cocoa and peanut butter to taste.

Blend strawberry flavour

Add frozen bananas, strawberries, and almond milk to a blender. Blend until smooth.

Pro tip: Use frozen strawberries for a thicker texture.

Serve or freeze

Serve immediately for a soft-serve consistency or transfer to an airtight container and freeze for 1-2 hours for a firmer texture.

Pro tip: For easier scooping, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before serving.
