  • Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down sides if needed (Mine in food processor took about 2 minutes).
    Taste test the nice cream - if you want it sweeter you can add maple syrup or honey at this time and mix for another 30 seconds.

Recipe Notes:

Serving Tips:
  • Soft Serve – If you like soft serve (my personal fave) then just pour the strawberry banana nice cream into bowls and serve with a spoon.
  • Hard Ice Cream – If you want harder scoops you’ll need to freeze it for longer. Pour the nice cream mixture into a dish. Place in the freezer for 4-6 hours, or overnight to fully harden. When ready to serve, let sit on the counter for 10-15 minutes to thaw, then use an ice cream scoop to dish into bowls to serve.
If you want the nice cream to be sweeter, you can add a bit of real maple syrup or honey. Personally, I find the strawberries and bananas are sweet enough. Taste test before you add some.
