One thing I do adore, especially in the hot weather is a delicious ice cream. Since I stopped consuming dairy this became some what of a thing I quietly, now and again, yearned for. How brilliant that completely by accident I made some! So without further ado, here is what you do do
Serves 4 - 6 (or just 1 very hungry teenager as happened in my house!)
Ingredient
- 10 Ripe (spotty skinned) banana's
- 200 g Dates (if dried soak overnight in 300 ml of water) (Optional, they add sweetness but can be left out)
- 2 cups frozen Mixed Berries
- 200 ml spring water
Method
Chop each banana into 4- 5 chunks, place in a freezer box/bag and leave over night to freeze.
If you are using dried dates pop them into a tub with 300 ml of water to soak overnight as well . . KEEP WATER DO NOT DISCARD THE NEXT DAY!!
After all the freezing and soaking has gone on get your blender and pop in the dates and top up water they were soaked in to 200 ml whizz it up.
If you are not using dates then just pour in 200 ml of spring water. Next throw in the bananas and blend together. If you are using a high speed blender such as a vitamix you will only need to blend for seconds otherwise you will overheat the mix. On the other end of the scale if you are using a less powerful blender you may need to keep stopping and stirring to ensure all the fruit is processed.
Tah Dah ready. That is it done, yes it really is as easy as that!
Serve with sliced strawberry or sprinkle with chopped nuts, or just leave it the way it is!
