A frozen Banana, blueberries and vanilla are all you need for this 3 Ingredient Banana Blueberry Nice Cream. A healthy and delicious dairy-free dessert with no added sugar!
Jump to RecipeI am not a berry person at all, but it was National Ice Cream day recently, I thought this blueberry “ice cream” would make a good intro recipe.
Added in a splash of Pure Vanilla Extract with frozen bananas and berries, blended it in a food processor and voila! Blueberry Nice Cream with all the sweet creaminess but no milk or sugar!
I think I’m gonna be making this more often now, maybe some smoothies, I don’t even know.
If only blueberries weren’t so expensive!
Ingredients for this Healthy Blueberry Banana Ice Cream
This easy non-dairy ice cream needs just frozen bananas, frozen blueberries and vanilla extract – no eggs, cream or milk!
You might need to add a splash of milk to get the food processor running though, so to keep it a dairy-free and Vegan banana ice cream, I’d recommend almond milk.
How to make no churn frozen banana ice cream?
There’s no blender or ice cream maker needed here!
Chop up or slice a banana and freeze for an hour or two and then process/blend them in a food processor for about a 30 seconds with the frozen blueberries and vanilla.
Serve the banana blueberry nice cream as a soft serve immediately.
Want a proper Banana Berry Ice Cream?
Place the mixture in the freezer – in a parchment lined loaf pan or glass container – and let it freeze for about an hour. Then scoop it out and dig in!
Want a Banana Blueberry Sorbet?
Just add some extra milk into the blender or food processor along with the blueberries and bananas, and then store the nice cream in the freezer again for a bit – easy sorbet!
How about a Banana Blueberry Milkshake?
Add even more extra milk into the food processor or blender. Cashew, Almond or Coconut Milk are great, but you can also do soy milk for a nut free shake.
Extra Protein?
Add in some Greek Yogurt into the blender with the banana and blueberry – kind of like a protein ice cream!
Other Banana Nice Cream flavor options?
If you’re not a fan of blueberries, you can blend frozen strawberry, blackberry, raspberry, mango, any other fruit with the banana instead – this banana nice cream will still be healthy!
No fruit? Peanut Butter, Almond Butter, Cocoa, so many possibilities!
