Ingredients
  

  • 3 ripe bananas peeled and sliced
  • 1/4 cup milk dairy or non-dairy
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract optional

Instructions
 

  • Place the sliced bananas in a freezer-safe bag or container and freeze for at least 2 hours, or until solid.
  • Once the bananas are frozen, transfer them to a food processor or high-powered blender.
  • Add the milk and vanilla extract (if using) to the food processor or blender.
  • Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed. This may take a few minutes.
  • Serve immediately for a soft-serve consistency, or transfer back to a freezer-safe container and freeze for another 30 minutes for a firmer texture.

Notes

  • The riper the bananas, the sweeter the ice cream.
  • Use full-fat milk or coconut cream for a richer taste.
  • Freeze in individual portions for quick grab-and-go treats.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to a week.
  • For extra creaminess, blend in half an avocado.
