This "Ice Cream" can be banana, strawberry, raspberry, etc. flavored or chocolate (or whatever else you come up with). I made chocolate last night with some toasted chopped almonds... yummy. I've made it with just bananas and flax meal on top which is also good. If you want different fruits, just add some frozen strawberries, etc. along with the bananas. The bananas give the sweetness and the consistency.
1 Frozen Banana
1/4 c. vanilla rice milk
dash (or so) vanilla extract (optional)
1 TBSP Cocoa Pwdr (non-alkalized is best)
Peel and freeze (break into small chunks) banana in a plastic bag or kitchenware. This is a good way to make sure no bananas go to waste - just freeze the ones that start to get too ripe.
Place the rice milk in the food processor/ vita-mix/ blender. Turn the machine on and drop in small slices of frozen banana, one by one. You can also try 1 cup of organic frozen strawberries and 1/2 a banana per person. Enjoy!

Hey Joelle, what are the rest of the directions? Do you just blend it all together and then freeze it? It looks like you've got it on the stove here. love Jess
ReplyDeleteHey Jess, sorry for the confusion. No, you don't cook it or re-freeze it. The bananas are frozen to begin with (and I just happened to set the bowl on the stove for the picture). Just blend up the frozen bananas plus the other ingredients and your done... super easy.
