The temperature has been rising and with a couple of days in the upper 80s little B and I have been in need of a cool summertime treat. Lucky for us, mama has been freezing almost turned bananas on a regular basis. It never fails, the last banana (no matter how few I get) always seems to get a little too brown for my liking before we can finish it. On top of that, little B rarely finishes a whole one so I often pop the uneaten half in a ziplock bag in the freezer for a later use.
Since we are not quite beach bound (or Annies Bananies bound) yet, I decided to give my own banana “icecream” a try. The result was a super tasty, all natural and dairy free treat that the whole family enjoyed. I even froze the leftovers for “milkshakes” at a later date.
3-4 Frozen bananas (freeze with peels off)
2 C frozen blueberries
2 C frozen peaches
1 C All natural, no sugar added apple juice
*fruit and juice choices can be changed to fit your personal preferences
Add all the ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth, pushing down on the mixture with a wooden spoon every couple of minutes to make sure you get all the big chunks incorporated. Serve when it has reached a smooth consistency. Place the remainder in ice cube trays and freeze for later. Shake 2 cubes with 1 cup of milk in a sippy cup when your little one is ready for more!
