I'm making one of my favourite foods with a banana based recipe again like my post on gluten free and low calorie pancakes. This is another recipe passed on by a colleague at work that I just had to try and I was so glad that I did!
Yet again, the recipe is so unbelievably simple with ingredients of:
- 5 small or 3 large bananas
- 100ml semi-skimmed milk
- 1 tbsp vanilla essence or extract
It makes a thick creamy 'ice cream' like texture that you can add your usual ice-cream toppings to, such as fresh fruit, syrup, chocolate chips and more.
Method:
- Peel ripe bananas and cut into small chunks around half an inch thick or smaller
- Place into a tupperware bowl on some greaseproof paper
- Stick into the freezer for 1+ hours or until frozen
- Once frozen, put into a strong blender or food processer
- Pour over milk and tbsp of vanilla essence or extract
- Whizz until creamy texture achieved and serve!
The recipe makes two big bowls of ice-cream but you could also pour it into the tupperware and re-freeze if you don't finish all of it.
I tried this recipe on the boyfriend this week since he has a huge sweet tooth. We both absolutely loved it! We topped ours with fresh strawberries for extra fruit servings and put some artsy lines in.

I hope you enjoy this recipe if you give it a try! Let me know in the comments if you've tried this recipe and know of any other flavours we can try next. I think peanut butter would be good to add or maybe toffee sauce. Either way, I'll be having this again in no time!
