Mint Chocolate Chip "Ice Cream"
Minty, chocolately deliciousness! This plant-based ice cream is made from bananas and has no added dairy or sugar. Yummy stuff!
Ingredients
- 4 frozen bananas
- 1/3 cup almond milk or other non-dairy milk
- 1/2 avocado optional, for a creamier texture
- 6-8 drops peppermint extract
- 6 drops green food color optional, but fun for St. Patrick's Day
- 1/2 cup dairy-free chocolate chips more if you'd like 😉
Instructions
-
Combine frozen bananas, almond milk, , optional avocado, peppermint extract and food coloring in blender jar. Pulse and blend until smooth. (Looks kind of like a shamrock, doesn't it!)
-
Using a rubber spatula, spoon ice cream into a bowl and fold in the chocolate chips.
-
At this point you can eat it like soft-serve or put it in the freezer to harden. We can never seem to wait. 😜
Recipe Notes
You can make this without the food coloring, but somehow mint chocolate chip ice cream needs to be green - don't you think?! 😜😍💚
If you don't have a powerful blender (like Vitamix), you may want to thaw your bananas slightly for easier blending.
