Equipment
- Blender or food processor
- Freezer-safe container
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Knife for chopping bananas
- Freezer bag or container for freezing bananas
- Serving bowls or cones for serving the ice cream
Ingredients
- 2 ripe Bananas, peeled and chopped, then frozen
- ½ cup Skim Milk
Notes
- Take two ripe bananas, peel them, and chop them into small pieces. Place the chopped bananas in a container or freezer bag and freeze them until solid. It usually takes about 2 to 4 hours.
- Once the bananas are frozen, remove them from the freezer and let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes to slightly soften.
- In a blender or food processor, combine the frozen banana chunks and ½ cup of skim milk.
- Blend the mixture on high speed until the bananas break down and the mixture becomes smooth and creamy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides of the blender or processor a few times to ensure everything is well incorporated.
- Once the mixture reaches a soft-serve ice cream consistency, it's ready to be served. You can enjoy it immediately or transfer it to an airtight container and freeze for a firmer texture.
- If you prefer a softer ice cream, serve it right away. If you want a firmer texture, transfer the mixture to a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 2 hours or until it reaches the desired consistency.
- When ready to serve, scoop the homemade banana ice cream into bowls or cones and enjoy the creamy and refreshing treat.
