Chocolate Banana Ice Cream

A low-fat chocolate ice cream? It really does exist! Our blitzed banana creation is dairy-free and ready in minutes.

Ice cream is a sweet and refreshing treat. However, it's high in sugar, calories, and possibly additives and artificial ingredients. In other hand, vegan banana ice cream is a healthy alternative with less sugar and more fiber than classic dairy ice cream.

Ingredients:

-3 large ripe bananas (peeled, sliced, frozen)

Bananas can tend to get a bitter taste to them after freezing and it's intensified if they're under-ripe So definitely use very ripe bananas for this.

-80 ml unsweetened almond milk

-60g pure cocoa powder

-5 ml vanilla extract

-3g cinnamon powder

-A few grains of salt

Getting started:

-Place frozen bananas, almond milk, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, cinnamon powder, and salt one at a time in the food processor, and blend until smooth and creamy (add more milk if the mixture looks dry, not sticky). .

-Transfer mixture to a shallow plastic or glass container with a tight lid. Serve immediately, or for a firmer set, cover and place in freezer for 2 hours before serving.

-If ice cream freezes solid, allow to soften for 20 minutes prior to serving.
