Strawberry Banana Chocolate Nice Cream

The next time you feel like a healthier chocolate ice cream, try this strawberry banana "chocolate" nice cream out! It's easy, creamy, and oh so delicious!
Total Time 5 minutes
Servings: 1

Ingredients
  

  • 2 frozen bananas - Put your bananas in the freezer for a day or more prior to making the recipe.
  • 4 frozen or fresh strawberries - I suggest frozen if you have them but fresh is easier on an old blender
  • 1 TBSP carob powder I prefer a lightly roasted carob powder in this.

Method
 

  1. Slice your frozen bananas. If you are using both frozen bananas and frozen strawberries and you have an older or less powerful blender, let the sliced bananas sit out for 1-2 minutes to slightly soften. Don't let them sit too long though as the frozen consistency is important for ice cream. Otherwise it will turn into a shake, although it will still be delicious.
  2. Add the bananas, strawberries, and carob powder to the blender without any liquid. If you are using an old blender, add the fresh strawberries first if using fresh strawberries, otherwise add the slightly softened frozen banana first and then the frozen strawberries. The softest fruit on the bottom.
  3. Blend it all together until you get that creamy, thick consistency. I use the tamper that comes with the Vitamix to help mix it along when I'm using all frozen ingredients. ENJOY!
