Craving Buster: Clean Eating Banana Coconut Ice Cream

Clean Eating Banana Coconut Ice Cream

Oh dear.

Can you forgive me for doing two dessert posts so close together? I really do apologize.

Yes, I recently did a post on Chocolate Banana Ice Cream. But the number of bananas that ended up in my shopping basket this week was kind of prolific, and I just couldn’t pass up the chance to experiment with the Banana Ice Cream recipe again.

So here is my latest version of clean eating ice cream. I swear to you, if you like coconut, this recipe is even better than the  Chocolate Banana Ice Cream recipe. I swear!

Clean Eating Coconut Banana Ice Cream
(Makes approximately 8 servings – 1/2 cup each)

Ingredients
5 large bananas
1 can light coconut milk (15 oz. or close to it.)

Directions

Step 1 – Slice your bananas and place them in the freezer over night.

Step 2 – Place frozen bananas and coconut milk in a food processor. Blend until smooth. This will take a while, and probably a few pokes with a spatula (please turn the processor OFF before proceeding with the poking… thank you.)

Note: Remember, this is an Eat-And-Serve dish. Do not put this ice cream in the freezer once it’s been made. You won’t like the results.

Eat and Enjoy!

Munchkin Helpers:

If you have little ones, here’s how they can help (With close supervision, of course).

Let your kids put everything in the processor, and then let them turn it on once the lid is secure. They love watching the processor go!

Coconut is definitely one of my favorites. I have to give this a try.
