Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use fresh bananas instead of frozen?

Fresh bananas won't provide the same creamy texture, so it's best to freeze them overnight before making Nice Cream.

How do I store leftovers?

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for up to a week. Let it soften for a few minutes at room temperature before serving again.

  1. 1

    Ensure your bananas are fully frozen. This will give the Nice Cream its creamy texture.

  2. 2

    In a blender or food processor, combine the frozen banana slices with the unsweetened almond milk.

  3. 3

    Add the vanilla extract, cocoa powder (if using), and maple syrup (if using), to the blender.

  4. 4

    Blend all the ingredients together on high speed until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.

  5. 5

    Once the mixture reaches a soft-serve consistency, taste and adjust sweetness or flavor as desired.

  6. 6

    Serve immediately for a soft-serve texture, or transfer to a container and freeze for 1-2 hours for a firmer nice cream.

  7. 7

    Scoop into bowls and enjoy! Optionally, top with fresh fruit, nuts, or a drizzle of maple syrup.
