Chocolate Banana Ice Cream

Chocolate Banana Ice Cream


ALERT THE MEDIA - there is such a thing as a healthy ice cream. I never believed that a frozen banana could turn into something so tasty. It has the consistency of soft serve and you cannot get enough of it. 

PLEASE NOTE: THIS RECIPE IS PLANT DAY, FAST DAY, and EVERY DAY APPROVED!!!!!

INGREDIENTS
1 Large frozen banana (be sure to take the peel off before you freeze)
optional add ins:
- Any other frozen fruit, but you want the banana as a base
- 1 tbsp cocoa powder
- Raw nut butter (Meal B)
- Baked apples with cinnamon (Apple pie ala mode - it's legit)
- Any other baked fruits with cinnamon (peaches are good)
- Blueberry compote (simmer blueberries with water until it reduces to a sauce...drizzle on top of ice cream)
- Raspberry compote (same way as above)

DIRECTIONS
1) Peel the banana
2) Cut the banana into pieces and freeze for at least 2 hours
3) Place the banana (and any other frozen fruit you are using) in a food processor


4) Begin processing - keep going for about 20 seconds (add nut butter or cocoa powder or both now) - keep going - keep going...eventually the mixture will become creamy and smooth. It takes a little longer than you would think it would....just keep going until you get the right consistency....it should look like soft serve ice cream.


5) Place in a bowl and enjoy!!!!


Yes, it is really that simple! Eat this and feel guilt free whenever you are in need of something sweet! I am an ice cream fan and this is legit. Every time I eat it I am amazed that I made it myself AND how good it tastes!
