Can you imagine a more fun breakfast surprise than mom saying “let’s have ice cream for breakfast!”? Banana ice cream is a trick- it looks and feels like ice cream, but it’s actually a healthy version of a “fake out” ice cream! I surprised my son with this treat last week and he just loved it.
Banana Ice Cream
You will need:
- 3 bananas
- 1 container of honey flavored greek yogurt
- a splash of milk or water (optional)
What to do:
- The night before, slice the bananas and place in a container in the freezer. Freeze overnight.
- In a strong blender or food processor blend all the ingredients until smooth. You may need to add a splash of water or milk to get the blender moving.
- The consistency is smooth and ice cold, just like ice cream!
Serve and let your kids dig in! We did have some leftovers, which I scooped back into a plastic storage container to store in the freezer for another day.
Carter loved his ice cream and ate it so fast he got a brain freeze! He kept saying “mmmm” and “brrrrr.” This recipe is toddler approved!
Have you made banana ice cream before? What do you add to your recipe?
