Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ripe bananas, peeled and cut into 1-inch rounds
- 2 cups frozen blueberries or 1 1/2 cups frozen raspberries
- 2 tablespoons coconut milk (see Notes)
- 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
Instructions
- Place banana pieces on a tray in a single layer and freeze for at least 3 hours.
- Just before serving, place the frozen banana slices, frozen berries, coconut milk, and maple syrup into a food processor and process until starting to break up. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and then blend on high until a smooth, creamy ice cream forms.
- Scoop into bowls and serve immediately, or transfer to a loaf pan and freeze for up to 2 to 3 hours before serving. The nice cream becomes much harder over night: if you’re eating leftovers, allow to stand at room temperature for several minutes before scooping (sometimes I pop it in the microwave for a few seconds: just be careful!). The texture is much icier, so it’s best freshly made!
Notes
If you can tolerate dairy, you can also substitute yogurt for the coconut milk; add small quantities until the nice cream blends.
