Ingredients
- 4 large ripe bananas
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Directions
Step 1
Peel the bananas and slice them into thin rounds. Place the banana slices in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Step 2
Freeze the banana slices for at least 2 hours, or until they are solid.
Step 3
Once the bananas are frozen, transfer them to a food processor or blender. Blend until they reach a smooth consistency.
Step 4
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, and sugar until the sugar is fully dissolved.
Step 5
Add the pure vanilla extract and lemon juice to the milk mixture and stir well.
Step 6
Combine the blended bananas with the milk mixture, stirring until thoroughly mixed.
Step 7
Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, typically about 20 to 25 minutes.
Step 8
Transfer the churned ice cream to a lidded freezer-safe container, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Step 9
Cover the surface with plastic wrap before sealing the container. This helps prevent ice crystals from forming. Freeze for another 2 to 4 hours until firm.
Step 10
Scoop into bowls or cones and serve immediately. Enjoy your homemade creamy banana ice cream!
