Description

A creamy, dairy-free banana ice cream made in the Ninja Creami using just bananas, almond milk, and vanilla. Naturally sweet and vegan-friendly, it's a healthy treat that feels indulgent.


Ingredients

2 medium ripe bananas

1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk

1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

Optional: 1–2 tsp peanut butter or almond butter

Optional: sugar-free chocolate chips or chopped nuts for topping


Instructions

  1. Slice the bananas into small chunks and freeze them in an airtight container for at least 8 hours or overnight.
  2. Transfer the frozen banana pieces into a Ninja Creami pint container.
  3. Add the almond milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Optionally, mix in peanut butter or almond butter for extra creaminess.
  4. Place the container into the Ninja Creami and run the “Lite Ice Cream” or “Smoothie Bowl” cycle.
  5. Check the texture after the first spin. If crumbly, add 1–2 tablespoons of almond milk and respin until smooth and creamy.
  6. Serve immediately or top with sugar-free chocolate chips or chopped nuts.
  7. Store leftovers in the freezer and respin before serving again.

Notes

Use bananas with brown spots for optimal sweetness and texture.

Almond milk keeps the recipe low-carb, but oat or cashew milk can be used as alternatives.

For added flavor, try mixing in cocoa powder, cinnamon, or nutmeg before spinning.

Re-spin frozen leftovers for the best creamy consistency.
