The summers are hot here because I live on the sun. At least, I feel like I live on the sun. The only way we are staying cool around here is with homemade frozen treats. We’ve covered brownie batter ice cream, cotton candy ice cream, strawberry & coconut popsicles, and today we’re talking about three ingredient banana ice cream. I shared the recipe over on Style Me Pretty Living and I figured I share it here as well! Because, ya know, you need to cool down too and this is the only way.
Ingredients
- 4 bananas
- 1/4 cup almond butter (or another nut butter if you prefer!)
- 1 scoop of chocolate protein powder
Instructions
Start by slicing up the bananas and placing them on a parchment-lined cookie sheet. Place them in your freezer for 20 minutes. Once frozen, remove them from the freezer and place in a food processor. If you don’t have a food processor, a sturdy blender will do just fine! Process the bananas until they are finely grated. It will kind of look like Dip ‘n’ Dots ice cream. Remember that?!

Once the bananas are processed, add the nut butter and process more. Scrape down sides with spatula to make sure everything is incorporated. Add the protein powder and process one final time. Serve immediately or freeze and enjoy later! Buy lasix 20mg
Go make this right now. You can even forget everything but the bananas and just process those and eat ’em right up. And you don’t have to feel a lick of guilt about it!

Holy YUM this sounds amazing. And only 3 ingredients?! That’s my type of recipe 😉
Lexy says
Right?!?! I’m super lazy in the kitchen so the fewer ingredients, the better!

This looks flippin delish! Also look at that food processor in action…glorious 😉
Lexy says

This looks delicious! I have seen these and tried it once, but want to give it another chance… hopefully it goes [better] this time! 🙂
Lexy says
Hi Heather! I think it all depends on how well you can process the bananas! You want the ice cream to be smooth, smooth, smooth!

This looks so so good, and is just what I need! I definitely need to cut back on my sugar. I have an irrational fear that I’ll have a 14lb baby with all the sweets I enjoy. This looks perfect
Lexy says
OH heavens, I think we all fear that we will have a 14 pounder! This is definitely a refreshing prego treat!
brittni says
Yum! This looks delicious, Lex.
Lexy says
Thanks, B! We’ve definitely been hustling to find healthy frozen recipes down here on the hot hot sun!

I just got back from the supermarket with bananas and almond butter for the recipe, but I couldn’t find chocolate protein powder anywhere 🙁 (I might need new glasses or more sleep..) I’ll try the recipe anyway, probably with cocoa powder. Or with a little hot chocolate mix, I’m not sure yet. Let’s hope it will be a success anyway!
Lexy says
Genevieve! So sorry to just now be responding! We were traveling all last week and it was tricky to get on here to respond to comments! You could totally try this with cocoa powder! I would even use hot cocoa powder so you get that great chocolate-y flavor! Let me know how it goes!
Geneviève says
I am super late to answer too! I tried the recipe and, in the end, I used a “chocolate powder for cold beverages” I found around here. Your recipe is sooooo good! I have been making a batch every week since I tried it! Truth is, sometimes I even eat some for breakfast : there is a banana and almond butter in each portion, so it surely counts as a breakfast? 🙂 Anyway, thanks a lot for this easy/delicious/refreshing recipe!
