In order to make a wonderful ice-cream at home, it is absolutely not necessary to buy an expensive ice-cream maker. A simple blender is what you need.
Did you know that a great base for ice-cream is … bananas? Making the banana ice-cream is ridiculously easy. Just cut the bananas into small pieces, put them in an air-tight container and store in the freezer until frozen. Just before serving, remove the bananas from the freezer and process them using a blender. First bananas will crumble into tiny pieces. Continue processing! After a few minutes you will see that the consistency changes. When it resembles ice-cream, stop. This is the basic recipe. For variation, add your favourite ice-cream ingredients: vanilla, nuts, fruits, berries, mint, exotic powders…
Please find below the classic recipe, the exotic nice and purple açaí recipe and my truly favourite chocolate ice-cream recipe.
