One ingredient banana ice cream is a treat for all ice cream lovers. Without any milk this ice cream is a delight. Few grinding, freezing tada creamy, yummy - ice cream treat is ready. Perfect way to make kids enjoy banana in the form of a tasty frozen dessert.
Summer was at its peak this year but I escaped (may be should I say escaped US summer). Two weeks back my husband got a box of ice cream from "Braums" thats when I realized I didn't prepare Ice cream this time. I was thinking with what I should make ice cream and as always my friend Google helped me. I found Banana Ice Cream here.
This one-Ingredient ice cream pulled my attention and as I had Banana in my pantry, I wanted to give it a try. After pulsing the ice cream I tasted it and I couldn't believe how (just) Banana can give such texture and taste.
I gave a spoon to my Son and after finishing it, he opened his mouth for a second serving, happy mom:-) freezed it for 3 hours and we all finshed it, and I decided that I should go for 4-5 bananas next time.
Perfect potassium-rich tasty ice cream without ice cream maker. Did I forget to mention, its an easy ice cream with minimal ingredients. Play with the flavours you like. You can add any of your kids favorite topping and make them eat banana. Believe me even before they realize it's banana they would have started enjoying second scoop.
Other frozen dessert in TMF,
Banana – 2, big – peeled & sliced
Chocolate chips, walnut and pecans – few
Method:
- Transfer the sliced bananas into a freezer safe container/ freezer bag and leave them for atleast 3 hours or overnight ( I left overnight)
- Put them in the mixie jar/powerful blender/ food processor and blend them. I used mixie, so I gave intervals between each grinding and scrapped the sides everytime. Icy texture will turn into a creamy goodness after some grinding. Grind once after getting the creamy texture for aerating the ice cream
- Serve it immeditely or freeze for 2-3 hours and serve. Topped my son's ice cream with chocalate chip, some pecans and walnut for us

I HAD to read the one-ingredient-no-churn ice cream. Super simple recipe, Vidya. Very ingenious. 🙂
Thanku Aruna:-)
Sound so simple and delish! I have a question though. Does the water not turn into ice crystals on freezing? Or do you blend it for smooth texture before serving every time you take it from the freezer?
Since we consumed immediately (after 2-3 hours) it was cremy texture. Yes if its kept for a longtime in freezer will crytalise and should pulse to break it. Thanks for asking I will update notes
Hye Vidya...super delighted to see this recipe. Thanks for sharing.
