Easy, One-Ingredient Ice Cream

One-Ingredient Ice Cream

This ice cream is bananas-- literally! Frozen bananas make the perfect base for a sweet, frozen treat. Add cinnamon-sugar, peanut butter, or Nutella for a fun twist.
Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 3 hours 10 minutes

Ingredients

  • 3 medium ripe bananas just beginning to show brown spots on the peel but the insides have not yet begun to brown-- not underripe but also not as ripe as you would use for banana bread
  • OPTIONAL ADD INS
  • cinnamon-sugar
  • peanut butter
  • Nutella

Instructions

  • Slice or dice bananas into small pieces (to make the blending part easier) and place in freezer until frozen through, at least a few hours.
  • Place frozen banana chunks into a food processor and blend.  Depending on the size of your food processor, the amount of bananas, and how frozen they are, you may have to stop it a few times and scrape and mush the mixture around. I've had to do that every time.
  • The mixture may look crumbly and resemble cous cous. Just grab a spatula, stir it, and watch as it transforms into perfect soft serve banana ice cream.
  • If using, blend in your desired add ins to taste and serve.
