Banana Ice Cream from It’s All Good

A few recipes from Gwyneth Paltrow’s cookbook It’s All Good were recently in a Self magazine article, so I decided to give one a try:  banana “ice cream.”  This is so stinkin’ simple and it really tastes like soft serve ice cream.  Brilliant!

Ingredients:

  • 4 ripe bananes, sliced and frozen for 3+ hours
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup almond (or coconut) milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Topping ingredients:

  • 1/4, or more, cups chopped nuts (she recommends almonds, we used pecans)
  • 2 tsp maple syrup
  • sprinkle of course sea salt (we used pink himalayan salt)

Instructions:

  • After bananas are frozen solid, puree them in a food processor with other ingredients, until the consistency of soft-serve ice cream.
  • Mix topping ingredients in a bowl, then spoon onto servings of the “ice cream.”
