Ingredients
Scale
- 3 ripe bananas, peeled, sliced, and frozen
- 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any dairy-free milk)
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- Pinch of sea salt
- 1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries (thawed if frozen)
- 2 tablespoons raw honey (or maple syrup for vegan option)
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- Fresh raspberries for garnish
- Chopped nuts like almonds or pistachios (optional)
- Mint leaves (optional)
Instructions
- Slice ripe bananas into coins, arrange on a parchment-lined tray, and freeze for at least 3 hours or overnight.
- In a small saucepan, combine raspberries, honey, and lemon juice. Warm over low heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until raspberries break down and mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat and strain through a fine mesh sieve if a smoother drizzle is desired. Let cool.
- Add frozen banana slices, almond milk, vanilla extract, and sea salt to a high-speed blender or food processor. Pulse, scrape down sides, and blend until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes. Add almond milk 1 tablespoon at a time if mixture is too thick.
- Scoop the creamy nice cream into serving bowls and drizzle the raspberry honey sauce generously on top.
- Garnish with fresh raspberries, chopped nuts, and a sprig of mint if desired. Serve immediately.
Notes
Use ripe bananas with brown spots for best natural sweetness. Thaw frozen raspberries and drain excess liquid for thicker drizzle. Avoid over-blending to keep texture frozen and creamy. For vegan version, replace honey with maple syrup or agave nectar. If blender struggles, let bananas sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before blending.
