4-Ingredient Blueberry Banana Nice Cream

July 10, 2020

Blueberry Banana Nice Cream

My love of ice cream knows no bounds. Especially when it’s as hot as it’s been this summer. By the time 4p 9a rolls around, I’m ready for a little frozen something to cool down. And while I know technically I could eat ice cream every day, I probably shouldn’t. Enter “nice cream” — the simplest, most decadent, no-churn ice cream that’s sneakily cream and added sugar-free. 

I struggle to even call this a recipe because it’s so easy to make. And there’s literally zero cooking involved. Just blend and enjoy.

Blueberry Banana Nice Cream

Blueberry is just one of many flavors. I’ve also got my eye on a few other combos to try soon:

  • Chocolate, with vanilla extract and cocoa powder
  • Mint chocolate chip, with peppermint extract and chocolate chips
  • Peanut butter cup, with both peanut butter and peanut butter cup candies (drool)
  • Pina colada, with coconut milk and pineapple
  • Coconut mango, inspired by my coconut mango semifreddo
  • And so many more…

I used a large food processor to blend everything together, but if you have a high-powered blender, that would work great too.

A few banana tips to help make your nice cream dreams come true:

  • Let your bananas ripen — the riper (think brown spots on the peel), the sweeter your nice cream will be without needing to add too much honey or other sweetener
  • Cut your bananas into pieces 1″ or smaller — the smaller they are, the easier they’ll blend up into a soft serve-like consistency
  • Make sure your banana pieces are frozen all the way through — I find it easiest to put them in the freezer overnight

Okay, enough talking already. Let’s get to the good stuff 👇
