BANANA ICE CREAM SUNDAE



Banana Ice Cream Sundae image

Don't let the name fool you; this "sundae" is actually a healthy serving of fruit in a bowl. Frozen bananas are pulsed in a food processor until they're creamy like ice cream and then topped with more fruit, nuts and coconut. You can shamelessly eat this for breakfast or even as a recovery snack after a big run - your body will thank you for the extra energy and potassium.

Time 8h15m

Yield 1 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 large ripe bananas, peeled
1/4 cup raspberries
2 teaspoons pure maple syrup
1/4 cup blueberries
2 teaspoons chopped pistachios
2 teaspoons toasted coconut
1 teaspoon mini chocolate chips
2-percent Greek yogurt, for serving

Steps:

  • Cut each banana into 6 chunks and freeze until rock-solid, preferably overnight.
  • Make the ice cream: Put the banana chunks in a food processor and process. (Hang on, your food processor may jolt in the very beginning!) The bananas will look crumbly at first, then gooey and eventually light and creamy, just like ice cream. Stop the food processor frequently to scrape down the sides of the bowl and break up any clumps. Serve right away or scrape into a container and freeze until ready to serve.
  • Make the sundae: Mash the raspberries and maple syrup together in a small bowl with a fork until saucy. Scoop the banana ice cream into a dish and top with the raspberry sauce, blueberries, pistachios, coconut, chocolate chips and a dollop of Greek yogurt.

  • If you don't have a blender, you can mash the bananas with a fork. However, a blender will give you a smoother texture.
  • If you're using frozen bananas, thaw them slightly before using. This will make them easier to blend.
  • Don't skimp on the toppings! Whipped cream, chocolate syrup, and pineapple chunks all add delicious flavor and texture to these sundaes.

Banana colada sundaes are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. They're also a great way to use up ripe bananas. So next time you have a craving for something sweet, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
