Description

Discover a delightful frozen treat that's both satisfying and surprisingly wholesome. This unique dessert blends the sweetness of bananas with the creamy richness of avocados, creating a symphony of flavors and textures that will tantalize your taste buds. The base begins with frozen bananas, transformed into a smooth, naturally sweet "ice cream.

" The magic lies in the preparation: the frozen bananas are carefully processed to achieve a perfectly creamy consistency, ensuring a melt-in-your-mouth experience. Ripe bananas, frozen to perfection, are key to achieving the brightest flavor and most appealing color. Their sweetness is essential to the overall taste, so selecting the right bananas makes all the difference.

The frozen banana base is then layered with an equally luscious avocado cream. The avocado adds a velvety texture and a subtle, complementary flavor that balances the sweetness of the banana. The avocado not only enhances the creaminess but also introduces a healthy element to this delectable dessert.

Preparing the banana base requires a bit of patience and a specific technique. The frozen banana slices are processed in intervals, with frequent stirring to prevent overheating. This ensures that the mixture remains cold and creamy throughout the blending process.

The result is a smooth, decadent base that forms the foundation of this delightful treat. The combination of the sweet banana base and the rich avocado cream creates a dessert that's both indulgent and guilt-free. Each spoonful offers a burst of flavor and a satisfyingly smooth texture.

Whether enjoyed as a light dessert or a refreshing snack, this banana-avocado creation is sure to please. The subtle sweetness, combined with the creamy textures, makes it a delightful treat for any occasion. The vibrant color and appealing presentation add to the overall experience, making this dessert a feast for the senses.

This recipe offers a unique and delicious way to enjoy the natural sweetness of bananas and the creamy richness of avocados. It's a perfect balance of flavors and textures, creating a dessert that's both satisfying and wholesome. This frozen dessert is an exciting alternative to traditional ice cream.

It is a delightful blend of textures and flavors that is perfect for warm weather or any time you're craving a sweet, satisfying treat.

Instructions

    1.
    The night before or several days before, remove ripened bananas from their peels and place them into a gallon sized freezer bag. Freeze them until solid, which will be overnight at the least. Once frozen, take the bananas out and use a cutting board and chef’s knife to cut them into thin slices. Add them to the bottom of a food processor fitted with a blade. Add half of the milk. Blend it for several seconds (about 30 seconds) until the mixture stops moving on the inside. Use a rubber spatula to stir the mixture to combine the creamy banana with the banana pieces.
    2.
    Add the rest of the milk and process again for 30 seconds. Keep removing the lid from the food processor and stirring the banana mixture with a rubber spatula avoiding the blades.
    3.
    Repeat this process until all the bananas have turned into “ice cream” and there are no banana pieces left. It should look very creamy and exactly like ice cream in texture and appearance. If you wanted to, you could add vanilla extract (about 1 teaspoon).
    4.
    Prepare a small rimmed baking sheet with 12 3 oz paper cups. Cut ½ of a room temperature banana into 12 thin slices and place them into the bottom of each cup.
    5.
    Fill each cup halfway with about half of the banana ice cream mixture. You can use a small teaspoon ice cream scoop to portion as it helps keep things mess free. Tap each paper cup several times on the counter to knock the ice cream down so it is smooth.
    6.
    Then blend a room temperature avocado into the other half of the banana ice cream mixture that is still in the food processor until smooth and creamy. Top off all the paper cups with the new mixture. Then place a lollipop stick into the center of each one. The banana slice at the bottom of each cup should help to hold it and if you made your mixture right it should be thick enough to hold the lollipop stick up. Freeze until firm and remove the paper cup before consuming.
