This past summer I officially fell in love with banana soft serve. It is absolutely amazing stuff. Here is a fancy recipe for some. This ice cream has a beautiful fuchsia colour. It is as vibrant in appearance as it is in flavor. —DUZE @BakingBackwards
Ingredients
-
5-6
peeled frozen bananas
-
1 1/2 tbsp
organic vanilla extract OR the seeds of one vanilla pod
-
1 shot
vanilla rice milk ( I like Natura rice milk)
-
1 pinch
coarse sea salt
-
1/2 teaspoon
organic grounnd cinnamon
-
1 tablespoon
organic maple syrup
-
2
ice cubes of frozen beet juice
-
1/4 cup
organic 100% cocoa powder
-
1/8 cup
poppy seeds (optional)
-
1/2 cup
chocolate chips
Directions
-
Buy or juice your own beet juice. Freeze into cubes in a ice cube tray.
-
Next day: If using vanilla pod, split down the middle and scrape out the seeds into a food processor. Puree first 8 ingredients until silky smooth in a food processor. Add chocolate chips and pulse once to incorporate. If you are feeling adventurous, throw in 1/8 cup of poppy seeds and pulse. Serve immediately for soft-serve like ice cream OR transfer to a large bowl and freeze covered with cling film for hard ice cream texture.
-
If you are VEGAN and do not consume alcohol, use a vanilla pod instead of extract. I highly recommend including the chocolate chips, especially if you find the beet flavor too overpowering.
