Ingredients for Banana Soup

  • 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • Heavy Cream
  • 3 ripe bananas, peeled and sliced
  • Nutmeg
  • Lemon Juice

How to Make Banana Soup

  1. Peel and slice 3 ripe bananas.
  2. In a blender, combine the sliced bananas, 1 cup of milk (dairy or non-dairy), 2 tablespoons of lime juice, 1 tablespoon of honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste), and a pinch of ground ginger.
  3. Blend until completely smooth and creamy. Add more milk if needed to reach desired consistency.
  4. Strain the soup through a fine-mesh sieve (optional) for an extra smooth texture.
  5. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the soup to cool thoroughly.
  6. Garnish with a sprig of mint, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or a drizzle of additional honey before serving.
  7. Serve chilled and enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
