Creamy, soft, and naturally sweetened, this nice cream can easily be made into a vegan ice cream, and is full of natural fiber too!

2 servings

For The Nice Cream

1 bananas frozen

⅖ cup organic plain Greek yogurt or any plant-based yogurt, can also use up to ¼ cup unsweetened almond milk (or any plant-based milk)

1 tbsp dark chocolate chips or unsweetened cocoa powder

1 tbsp chopped walnuts

Optional Mix-Ins

½ tbsp peanut or almost butter optional

¼ cup frozen berries or other fresh fruit

¼ tsp cinnamon

1 tbsp chopped pecans

Place frozen banana chunks in a food processor. Blend until you have coarse crumbs.
Add the yogurt and blend 1-2 minutes or until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Add the chocolate and walnuts and pulse a few times until incorporated. Add any mix-ins you like as well at this point.
Serve immediately, or place in the freezer for 30-60 minutes for a firmer, more ice cream-like consistency.
