2-Ingredient Banana Ice Cream (Print Version)

A creamy frozen treat using just bananas and milk, naturally sweet and ready in minutes.

# What You'll Need:

→ Fruit

01 - 4 ripe bananas

→ Liquid

02 - 2 tablespoons plant-based milk (almond, oat, coconut) or dairy milk

# How to Make It:

01 - Peel the bananas and slice them into thin coins.
02 - Place banana slices in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
03 - Freeze the slices for at least 2 hours until completely solid.
04 - Transfer frozen banana slices to a high-powered blender or food processor; add the milk and blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down sides as needed.
05 - Serve immediately as soft-serve, or transfer into a container and freeze for 1 hour for a firmer texture before scooping.

# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • It tastes like indulgence but uses fruit you probably already have turning brown on the counter.
  • No churning, no waiting, no guilt—just blend and eat.
  • You can flavor it a hundred ways and it still works every single time.
02 -
  • If your blender stalls, let the bananas sit on the counter for five minutes—they soften just enough to save the motor.
  • Don't skip the parchment paper or you'll spend ten minutes prying frozen banana coins off the pan with a butter knife.
03 -
  • Slice the bananas thin so they freeze faster and blend easier—thick chunks take forever and jam up cheaper blenders.
  • Add the milk slowly, just enough to get things moving, or you'll end up with a smoothie instead of ice cream.
