This creamy strawberry-banana nice cream tastes like soft-serve ice cream, yet it is made from just fruit and a splash of coconut milk. It is cool, naturally sweet and ready in minutes, making it a perfect light dessert for warm days. For another fruity frozen treat, try the Homemade Berry Banana Ice Cream, and for a quick banana breakfast, the Banana Oat Pancakes.
Ingredients
- 300 g (about 2 large) frozen bananas, sliced
- 100 ml (1/3 cup + 1 tbsp) coconut milk (or any plant milk)
- 100 g (3/4 cup) strawberries
- 3-5 g fresh mint leaves (optional)
- 1 tsp lemon juice
Instructions
- Slice the bananas and freeze for at least 4 hours. Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until completely smooth.
- Add mint to taste if you like. Enjoy soft-serve style right away, or transfer to molds and freeze for a couple of hours for a firmer texture.
Tips
- Freeze the bananas in a single layer so they blend smoothly without overworking the blender.
- For a thicker texture, add the coconut milk a little at a time until the mixture just turns creamy.
