2-Ingredient Banana Ice (Printable Version)

Naturally sweet frozen treat from ripe bananas and milk, creamy and simple to prepare.

# What You'll Need:

→ Fruit

01 - 4 ripe bananas

→ Liquid

02 - 2 tablespoons plant-based milk (almond, oat, coconut) or regular milk

# How To Make It:

01 - Peel the bananas and slice them into thin coins.
02 - Arrange the banana slices in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for at least 2 hours until solid.
03 - Transfer the frozen banana slices to a high-powered blender or food processor, add the milk, and blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.
04 - Serve immediately as soft-serve or transfer to a container and freeze for 1 hour for a firmer texture before scooping.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It comes together in minutes with ingredients you probably already have on hand
  • The texture is shockingly close to real ice cream without any cream or added sugar
02 -
  • Do not skip freezing the bananas first, or you will end up with mush instead of creamy ice cream
  • A high powered blender makes all the difference, but a food processor works if you are patient
03 -
  • Slightly overripe bananas with plenty of brown spots will give you the creamiest, sweetest results
  • If your blender is struggling, add just a tiny splash more milk rather than overworking the machine
