Instructions:
-
Freeze the Bananas: Begin by taking 4 ripe bananas, peel them, and cut them into chunks. Lay the banana pieces on a tray and place them in the freezer overnight. Freezing the bananas is essential for achieving the creamy, ice-cream-like texture.
-
Blend the Bananas: The next day, once the bananas are frozen, transfer the pieces into a blender or food processor. Blend the frozen banana chunks until smooth and creamy. This process should take a few minutes, and you’ll notice the bananas turn into a thick, soft-serve consistency.
-
Add Sweetness and Flavor: Once the bananas are blended, transfer the mixture into an airtight container. Add 1 tablespoon of honey and 4 tablespoons of white chocolate chips or white chocolate, finely chopped. Mix everything thoroughly, ensuring that the honey and chocolate are evenly incorporated.
-
Freeze Again: Line a loaf pan with parchment paper. Pour the banana mixture into the pan and smooth out the top. Cover with parchment paper and place the pan in the freezer for 3-4 hours or until fully frozen.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Once the banana ice cream is fully set and frozen, it’s ready to serve! Scoop the creamy ice cream into bowls or cones and enjoy this refreshing, healthy dessert.
Serving Suggestions:
For an extra special treat, serve the 3-Ingredient Banana Ice Cream alongside a delicious Butter Garlic Naan or a light Sweet Potato & Oatmeal Kofta Curry (Non-Fried). Alternatively, you can pair it with a one-pot meal like Chicken Crepe Lasagne for a well-rounded weekend treat. This ice cream is a perfect way to end a meal with something light, naturally sweet, and delicious!
