Guilt free ice-cream (You heard me!)


Simply chop up ripe bananas, place in ziplock bags and freeze, then pop in the blender and blend until smooth for a delicious, healthy treat! 

More "indulgent" ice-cream recipes…

Banana, mango and coconut ice-cream

  • 1 mango or cup dried mangoes
  • 5-6 frozen, overripe bananas
  • 50-100g coconut cream powder

if using dried mangoes, soak overnight in water or slice and soak in warm water for 2hours, and then drain.
Puree all the ingredients together in a food processor until smooth and fluffy, then freeze.
Once frozen, blend again in a food processor and return to freezer. Bland and freeze once more for a really smooth ice-cream.
