Ingredients
- 4–6 medium Ripe Bananas (must be spotted with brown)
- 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract (optional for depth)
- 1–2 tbsp Almond Milk (optional for smoother blend)
Instructions
- Peel your ripe bananas thoroughly before slicing them into uniform, consistent half-inch rounds.
- Arrange the slices on a parchment-lined baking sheet to prevent sticking during the freezing stage.
- Freeze the banana slices for at least four hours until they are completely solid and firm to the touch.
- Place your fully frozen slices into a high-powered food processor for the most efficient blending process.
- Pulse the motor repeatedly to break down the frozen chunks into a rough, crumbly texture at first.
- Process the mixture continuously while scraping down the sides to ensure no frozen bits remain hidden. Add a splash of almond milk if you find the mixture is too thick for the blades to handle smoothly.
- Whisk in the vanilla extract once the consistency becomes light, airy, and uniform throughout the bowl.
Notes
Use frozen slices that have been stored for at least 24 hours to ensure they stay cold longer during processing. Pulse in short bursts rather than running the processor continuously to prevent melting. Scrape the sides of your bowl frequently. Serve immediately to enjoy the peak aerated texture, or store in an airtight freezer-safe container for 2-3 weeks and re-process briefly before serving.
