Creamy Banana-Berry Ice

Creamy Banana-Berry Ice blends frozen bananas with lime, frozen berries, and coconut cream into a quick frozen dessert with no cooking.

The bananas are blended first with lime zest and juice until creamy. Frozen berries and coconut cream are added afterward so the final texture can be adjusted as the mixture blends.

It is designed to be served immediately, though the source notes that it can be kept frozen for up to one month. Fresh berries, toasted coconut, or chocolate shavings are optional garnishes.

Ingredients

  • 4 frozen bananas
  • Zest and juice of 1 lime
  • 2 cups frozen raspberries, blueberries, or strawberries
  • 1 cup coconut cream
  • Optional garnish: fresh berries, toasted coconut, or chocolate shavings

Method

Blend the frozen bananas with the lime zest and juice in a blender or food processor until soft and creamy, about 2 minutes. Add the frozen berries and coconut cream and continue blending until the desired consistency is reached. Serve immediately, with any optional garnish if desired. The source notes that the dessert can be kept frozen for up to 1 month. Makes 8–10 servings.
