Chocolate Coconut Banana "Ice Cream"

12/30/2012

This dessert is simple and quick, and it's unbelievably delicious, smooth and satisfying! When that entire bunch of bananas suddenly begins to turn brown and there's no way to eat them before they go bad, just peel and store two sliced bananas to a baggie in the freezer. That way they're on hand and ready to go when the urge for this awesome dessert strikes!
Ingredients:
  • 2 ripe bananas, sliced and frozen
  • 2 Tbs lite coconut milk (Trader Joe’s is good) or enough to keep the blades moving through the mixture without liquifying it
  • ¼ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 Tbs unsweetened cocoa powder

Preparation:
  1. Place all ingredients into a Vitamix or food processor. 
  2. Start the Vitamix or food processor on the lowest setting and slowly increase speed until the bananas reach a smooth, creamy texture. 

Makes 1-2 servings.

    All recipes posted here showcase how amazing whole, plant-based foods can taste! I love to play with ingredients, so most of these recipes are my own originals or variations on a published recipe. I have tried all recipes posted and give credit to the creators of those that are not mine. These recipes are all gluten-free unless otherwise noted, in which case gluten-free alternatives are presented. I use lite coconut milk that comes in a can with nothing added except water (no added sugar). Be adventurous, have fun, and give these recipes a try!
