Ingredients
- 4 large ripe bananas
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Begin by choosing 4 large ripe bananas. The bananas should be yellow with brown spots for the best flavor and sweetness.
Step 2
Peel the bananas and slice them into thin coins, about 1/2 inch thick.
Step 3
Spread the banana slices in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Step 4
Place the baking sheet in the freezer and freeze the banana slices for at least 2 hours, or until completely frozen.
Step 5
Once the bananas are frozen, remove them from the freezer and let them sit for a couple of minutes to make them easier to blend.
Step 6
Place the frozen banana slices in a high-speed blender or food processor. Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract for flavor.
Step 7
Blend the bananas on high speed, scraping down the sides of the blender or processor as needed.
Step 8
Be patient as the bananas will first crumble and then gradually smooth out to form a creamy consistency, resembling soft-serve ice cream.
Step 9
Ensure the mixture is smooth and creamy with no lumps remaining.
Step 10
Serve the banana ice cream immediately for soft-serve texture, or transfer to an airtight container and freeze for another 1-2 hours for a firmer consistency.
Step 11
Enjoy your homemade, sugar-free creamy banana ice cream with your favorite toppings if desired.
