Breakfast Sundae – Banana & Strawberry Ice “Cream”

Banana and strawberry softserve

London is hot hot hot and humid to boot.    I am positively enjoying my supermarket trips at the moment as I linger  and closely examine every object in the frozen section.    And what better for these hot summer mornings than ice cream for breakfast?    This is totally healthy, unprocessed, raw and vegan and tastes fantastic.   What better way to start (or end) your hot summer days?

This is another contribution to my series of easy, economical and healthy recipes of what to do with the contents of the co-op “boxes” for the Food Co-ops and Buying Groups project run by Sustain – also part of the Making Local Food Work programme funded by the Big Lottery.

The secret behind this ice cream is blended frozen banana which has been written about all over the internet many times before.   When put into the food processor the frozen banana transforms into a fluffy creamy mousse like ice cream, add some milk and it makes the perfect smoothie base.    Try it and be amazed!  Peel and slice the bananas into 2″ pieces and freeze on a baking tray.  When frozen pack into boxes.   I now always have several boxed of bananas and soft fruit in the freezer for smoothies and ice cream.     I think that this would also be perfect for fruit hating children.

Ingredients

  • 3 frozen bananas

Instructions

  • Put the banana and strawberries into your food processor and leave for a few minutes to slightly soften and then process.   Depending how powerful your machine is you may need to add a little milk and scrape the sides of the bowl down to speed the process along.      The fruit will slowly transform into a fluffy whipped ice "cream" resembling Mr Whippy ice cream.    Serve immediately with some more fresh fruit and a sprinkling of cacao nibs.   Eat immediately.

    Sounds like a very yummy breakfast. Is there really such a being as a strawberry hating child?

    What a great idea! I’ve tried this in my juicer, but making ice cream using a food processor is even easier — less to clean up. I look forward to trying your approach this summer.

    Hi Helen
    Thanks for your message on my blog, have left you a reply there, and asked for more info.
    Have been making lots of strawb stuff these last few days, jam, ice-cream, vodka and of course, just having some with cream.
    However having got through the 4 kilos we harvested, I have just been sent 4 large punnets today so thinking smoothies for tomorrow!

    How perfect. Sinful and fat-free at the same time. I will be trying this. My husband informs me we have 3 bananas left, so two for the freezer and one to keep for the baby.
