This is what I make when i have a sugar craving. We make these several times a week, usually late at night to enjoy while watching a good movie or an episode of star trek. :) Before you can make this you need to freeze ripe bananas. Because we use so much of these I try to buy over-ripe bananas in bulk from the produce manager. They will often give them to me at half off or some other deal. I peel and break the bananas in half (if your blender isn't very tough you'll need to break the bananas in bite size pieces) and stuff them in big zip-loc bags to freeze. The frozen bananas are what makes the shake so creamy. Don't substitute unfrozen bananas! In a few hours they'll be ready for your banana ice cream.
3 Frozen Bananas
1 cup vanilla Soy or Rice Milk
1/8 tsp Nutmeg
1/2 tsp Cinnamon
This isn't a science. I hardly ever measure anymore, I just grab a few frozen bananas, add enough milk to blend it and make the the consistency you like and add spices to taste. Blend until it's all smooth and enjoy.
I just made this. I was seriously craving some ice cream and this hit the spot. Perfect addition to the blog.
ReplyDeleteI found this stuff called soy whip btw and it really tastes like the real thing. Dairy free. I just love topping shakes with whipped cream, so this is a yummy thing to add to the recipe.
ReplyDeleteThanks for taking a picture! It looks so yummy. One of these days I'll get adventurous and take pictures of my food too. But I think I'll wait for a few weeks until I get home and have something besides plastic bowls and cups. :)
