Ingredients for 1 Ingredient Ice Cream

  • Bananas
  • Nuts

How to Make 1 Ingredient Ice Cream

  1. Freeze 2 cups of ripe bananas for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight. This ensures a creamy texture.
  2. Add the frozen bananas to a food processor.
  3. Process until completely smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed. This may take several minutes depending on your food processor.
  4. Taste and adjust. You can add a dash of vanilla extract or other desired flavorings at this stage (optional).
  5. Serve immediately for a softer consistency, or freeze for a firmer ice cream.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
