Ingredients used to make this healthy strawberry banana icecream

_{**I’ve linked some of these ingredients to amazon.com to give you an idea of what they are, but you should also be able to find them in your local grocery store (usually, the natural & organic food section).

• Bananas – best when ripe. The sweetest ones are yellow with brown spots.
• Honey – I used honey for this recipe but you can use other sweeteners of choice like maple syrup, agave syrup, or liquid stevia, You can also use granulated sugars, such as coconut sugar (be careful though, as it will change the color) or monk fruit sweetener.
• Strawberries – fresh or frozen. For the best flavor, buy them when they’re in season (May, June, July)

How to Make

Recipe Variations and Optional Add Ins for this Strawberry Banana icecream:

• Texture – Add some nuts, dried fruits or just fold in some chocolate chips to the icecream before freezing.

How to Make this Healthier

• Make this even healthier by adding a handful of nuts, seeds and old-fashioned oats to add texture and nutrition before freezing.
• For a protein boost, you can also add a Tablespoon of protein powder of your choice when blending. I’ve tried using an unsweetened plant-based protein powder with good results.

What are some ways you can eat these?

• In a bowl or cup, drizzled with honey, maple syrup, caramel or chocolate syrup
• Stacked on a waffle or sugar cone

How to Store

• This strawberry banana icecream is best eaten within 1-2 days. The longer it is left frozen the harder it’d be to scoop. For best icecream consistency, take container out of the freezer and let sit out at room temperature for 10 mins. If it’s in a microwaveable container, you can also microwave it for 15 seconds until softened.

Final Tips

• Use ripened bananas for the best results!
• While a food processor will give you the best consistency for the banana icecream, you can also use a high-powered blender (such as Vitamix) that comes with a tamper. Use the tamper to push the ingredients into the blades of the blender to ensure the best results.
