This easy banana nice cream recipe is creamy, healthy and totally customisable. Try 5 flavour combos like choc chip, peanut butter cup, or mango coconut!

Instructions

Peel and slice the bananas into coin-sized pieces. Place the bananas into 2–3 snap lock bags and place into the freezer overnight to freeze until rock solid.

Peanut butter cup : Add 4 tbsp cocoa powder, 1 tsp vanilla extract and 3 tbsp peanut butter.

Berry + almond : Add 1 cup mixed frozen berries, 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup, 1 tsp vanilla extract and 6 tbsp toasted almond flakes to sprinkle on top.

Mint choc chip : Add 1⁄2–1 tsp pure peppermint extract, 2 tsp spirallina powder to make it green and stir in 1 cup chocolate chips once the banana is blended.
