Nice Cream Three Ways
This nice cream uses just a few simple ingredients to create a healthier version of your favorite summertime treat — no ice cream maker necessary.
Ingredients
- 1 ripe, frozen banana, cut into 1-inch quarters
- Pinch sea salt
- 1/4 cup unsweetened nut milk, such as almond or coconut
For Cherry Chocolate Chip
- 1/2 cup frozen cherries
- 1 tsp. almond extract
- 2 squares chocolate with 85 percent or higher cocoa, chopped
For Piña Colada
- 1/4 cup unsweetened coconut milk (in place of almond milk)
- 1/2 cup frozen pineapple
- 1 tsp. coconut extract
For Chocolate Peanut Butter
- 1 tbs. unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tbs. natural peanut butter
Directions
STEP 1
Make sure your banana is fully frozen, having been in the freezer for at least six hours. Place the banana and a pinch of sea salt in a blender or food processor. If you're making a flavored ice cream, add the other ingredients to the blender or food processor. Blend on low, adding your choice of nut milk until the mixture reaches your desired consistency.
STEP 2
Once the ingredients are fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth, you can either eat it immediately or scoop it into a container and freeze until ready to eat.
