Ice cream can be a big thing that vegans miss when they give up dairy products. This vegan ice cream recipe will help you use up your leftover bananas whilst also producing a delicious and healthy ice cream. Here’s how to make it.

Ingredients

  • 3 ripe bananas
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
  • 1 cup of oat milk
  • Optional toppings such as chopped hazelnuts, dairy-free chocolate chips or shredded coconut

Instructions

  1. Peel and chop your bananas into small coins. Put your banana coins into a sealed bag and put in the freezer for 2-3 hours. At this point they should be solid.
  2. Once your bananas are ready, put them in a food processor or bowl with a hand blender and add your vanilla extract and oat milk.
  3. Blend your bananas until they create a creamy and smooth texture. Make sure to get all the bits of banana down the side of your food processor or bowl. If your result is too thick, you can add more milk.
  4. You can either serve it immediately or refreeze it if you want a more solid ice cream. Enjoy topped with nuts or chocolate chips.
