This chocolate banana blender ice cream combines frozen bananas, almond butter, cocoa, chocolate protein powder, and salt. Serve it straight from the blender for a soft texture or freeze it briefly for firmer scoops.
Ingredients
- 4 frozen overripe bananas
- ¼ cup almond butter, or an allergy-friendly substitute
- 3 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons chocolate protein powder
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon instant coffee, optional
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a food processor or high-powered blender.
- Blend until completely smooth, stopping to scrape the sides as needed.
- If the blender is not powerful enough to process fully frozen fruit, let the bananas thaw slightly before blending.
- Serve immediately as soft serve, or transfer to a freezer-safe container and freeze for up to 1 hour before scooping.
Timing and Yield
Allow about 5 minutes for preparation. The recipe makes 2–4 servings.
