This ice cream is a doddle to make, you can satisfy your creamy cravings in less than ten minutes with this tasty snack. If like me, you love a banana and tend to over buy then this recipe is perfect for you. When your bananas are on the turn and you don’t have time to turn them into banana bread, simply peel them, break them into a few pieces and store them in the freezer.
Ingredients
- 2 frozen bananas
- A handful of leftover blueberries
- A dollop of coconut cream (the stuff that collects at the top of a can of full fat coconut milk)
Step 1
Take two bananas out of the freezer and set them on the side to acclimatise. You probably want them out of the freezer for ten minutes to give them a chance to soften a little. Unless you have a monster food processor or nerves of steel, this step is a sensible one. (It’s worth noting at this stage that the blueberries can also be frozen if you’ve saved them from the brink.)

Step 2
Fill your food processor and pulse, once the fruit is in bits you can start adding your coconut cream. You probably won’t need more than a couple of tablespoons – it just helps to loosen up that frozen banana (and it’s delicious!). Add it a little at a time until you achieve the desired consistency.

Step 3
Blend until smooth, then scoop out into a bowl and enjoy!

It really was that simple. Now, if you’re feeling a little bit antsy about the coconut milk or you don’t have any in the cupboard, you can always try subbing it for a splash of plant-based milk. Don’t go mad though, you want to loosen your mixture without turning it into a smoothie.
You could probably try this recipe with any berries, so go forth and turn your leftovers into ice cream! If you do try it out, share some pics with me on instagram @snackalinaeats – I would love to see your results.

This recipe makes a whole bowl full which is easily enough for two snackers or one very hungry person, you could comfortably scale this recipe up to feed more people but scaling it down might make it hard work for your blender. Have a go and let me know how you get on in the comments below.
