Ingredients

Servings:
2
3 large bananas, peeled, sliced, and frozen
1 scoop vanilla protein powder (about 30g)
2-3 tbsp unsweetened almond milk (as needed)
optional toppings peanut butter drizzle, cacao nibs, or fresh berries

Method

1

Freeze banana slices flat on a tray for at least 4 hours (overnight is ideal). This step cannot be skipped.

2

Add frozen banana and protein powder to a food processor.

3

Process, scraping down sides every 20–30 seconds. The banana goes through a crumbly stage — keep going.

4

Add almond milk 1 tablespoon at a time if needed to help it blend. You want the minimum amount.

5

After 2–3 minutes it transforms into a smooth, creamy consistency exactly like soft-serve ice cream.

6

Serve immediately for soft-serve texture, or freeze for 1–2 hours for scoopable ice cream.

💡 Chef's Tips

The riper the bananas the better — overripe ones with dark spots give naturally sweeter, creamier results.
