I’ve mentioned banana ice cream in a post before, but just in case someone missed it I thought it was important enough to dedicate an entire post to it today. This recipe somehow magically turns regular old bananas into delicious, creamy, cold, banana flavored ice cream without using any cream or an ice cream maker. I love it because it is good, good for you, incredibly simple to make, and (my new favorite reason) cheap!! I would venture to say that bananas are the cheapest fruit available in any grocery store…so bring it on!
There are also many different variations to this recipe. Feel free to play around and try adding in peanut butter, homemade chocolate sauce, a shot of chilled espresso, or even another type of frozen fruit. You can also top the ice cream with some granola sprinkles from the same yummy granola recipe that I made on the Charlotte Today Show this morning! No matter what extras you add in though, if you like bananas I guarantee you will be happy with the outcome of this recipe. So have fun with it and enjoy!
Banana Ice Cream
Ingredients
- 4 bananas frozen
- ½ cup milk (or less)
Variations:
- peanut butter
- chocolate sauce
- espresso chilled
- frozen fruit
Instructions
-
Peel the bananas, break them into thirds, enclose them into a Tupperware container, and stick them in the freezer overnight (or longer). I usually throw bananas in the freezer whenever they are about to go bad, and I’ve left them in there for weeks before so there is no rush.

When you are ready for the ice cream just put the bananas in a blender with 1/4 cup or 1/3 cup milk. I don’t have a fancy, expensive VitaMix so I have to shake my little cheapo Target blender around a bit to get it all to blend properly. Just keep adding small amounts of milk until the consistency resembles ice cream.
It is that easy!
Recipe Notes
We recommend organic ingredients when feasible.

Hi, I subscribed before but never received anything.
Thank you

Hi. Are you referring to meal plans? Just sent you an email. ;)
I go to see everyday some web pages and websites to read posts, but this
weblog offers quality based posts.
I don’t even understand how I stopped up here, however I assumed this put up was once great.
I do not understand who you might be however certainly you’re
going to a famous blogger should you aren’t already. Cheers!
I made banana ice cream this week. I used cream instead of milk and added frozen berry mix (blueberries and blackberries). My blender wasn’t doing a good job of mixing every thing so I transferred everything to my food processor. Perfect! This turned out SO good. I’ll make it again soon.
I slice the banana before freezing, and use my food processor. For a different flavor, I add pumpkin pie spice.
