So awhile back, I had a few bananas that were going to be too ripe too soon for my liking. They weren't ripe enough for banana bread, but past the point I'd regularly eat it plain. I love fruit smoothies, so I just decided to peel them and stick them in the freezer so I'd always have bananas on hand when I was craving a smoothie. I learned the best way to make a smoothie. . . use frozen fruit. Of course, I will take a smoothie in any way, shape, or form - whether the fruit is fresh or frozen. However, the secret to a texture that is thick, creamy and wonderful is frozen bananas. I even told my mom about my new find.
Today:
I was on Pinterest looking at a friend's board. She posted a pin of 'guilt free' ice cream. I looked at it, and the only ingredient in the recipe was overripe bananas. PERFECT. I had two that never made it into the freezer. Remember how I said frozen bananas make things thick, creamy and wonderful? I just knew I had to see if this recipe was for real. The very next thing I did was cut them up and put them in the freezer.
A Few Hours Later
I just found my new favorite go-to dessert. Is it technically ice cream? No, but that is perfectly fine.
