Ingredients
- 4 Large Ripe Bananas (sliced and frozen solid)
- 1/2 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract (optional for depth of flavor)
- 2 Tablespoons Almond Milk (add only if the blender stalls)
- Pinch Sea Salt (enhances sweetness)
Instructions
- Slice your ripe bananas into uniform coins before placing them in a freezer-safe bag.
- Freeze the banana slices for at least four hours, though overnight is ideal for the best results.
- Ensure your blender or food processor is clean and dry to maintain the integrity of the frozen mixture.
- Place the frozen banana slices into your high-speed blender or food processor.
- Pulse the mixture gradually to break down the frozen chunks without overheating the blades.
- Scrape down the sides of the container periodically to ensure all banana pieces are evenly processed.
- Pour in a small splash of almond milk only if the blades need assistance to create the signature consistency.
- Add the vanilla extract and salt just before the final blending stage to fully incorporate flavors.
Notes
Use only fully ripened bananas with brown spots to ensure natural sweetness. Freeze the slices on a parchment-lined tray initially to prevent clumping. Process in short pulses to prevent the motor from overheating and melting the mixture. Serve immediately for the best soft-serve mouthfeel.
