Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ripe bananas, sliced and frozen
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder (optional, for chocolate flavor)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- 1–2 tablespoons plant-based milk (almond, soy, or oat), as needed
Instructions
- Place the frozen banana slices in a food processor or high-speed blender.
- Add the cocoa powder and vanilla extract, if using.
- Begin to process the bananas. They will initially look crumbly.
- Add plant-based milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, and continue processing until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy, resembling soft-serve ice cream.
- Serve immediately or transfer to an airtight container and freeze for a firmer consistency.
Notes
- For a thicker consistency, use less plant-based milk.
- Experiment with different add-ins like nut butter, cinnamon, or other frozen fruits.
- Ensure bananas are very ripe before freezing for the sweetest flavor.
