Banana “Kinda-like" Ice Cream . . . and it’s dairy free!

We added pieces of a
chopped chocolate bar as
a topper. Yum!

I've seen a similar recipe on Pinterest and was intrigued. Of course it’s not the real thing (ice cream that is), but it is cold, creamy and dairy free. To make it simple I used ingredients in units of “3” but, feel free to vary according to your own taste. Serve it plain or add toppers such as chopped  chocolate bars, peanuts, etc. Hmmm, now I'm thinking I could use  bananas and Nutella next time; chopped hazelnuts would be a great topper for that combo.

Banana “Kinda-like" Ice Cream
. . . and it’s dairy free! About 4 servings

3 large bananas

3 tablespoonsful peanut butter


3 teaspoons (1 tablespoon) cocoa powder

1.     Slice bananas and freeze. (I put them in a covered freezer-safe container.)

2.     Add frozen banana slices, peanut and cocoa to the work bowl of food processor. Pulse until mixture is blended – it will be smooth and creamy.

3.     Transfer back to the freezer container and return to freezer for about an hour or until edges of mixture begin to set.
