Cranberry's Thoughts

By Cranberry

I was kinda upset that all of the yummy looking raw ice cream recipes I found used an ice-cream maker, and I don't have one (yet ;-D).

So I thought of how to make ice cream, without an ice cream maker, that tastes really good, and I came up with this!

It's easy, simple, and so yummy!

For other variations, add cocoa nibs for chocolate chocolate chip. For mint chip, add cocoa nibs and a little bit of peppermint extract. Try any variation you want!

Hi...

I have found a link that I thought looked like an easy way to make ice-cream - just need to modify the given recipes :)

Hi Ajc, Thanks for the suggestion, have you tried it that way? Does it still blend in the blender? I got the frozen banana amount wrong, it was supposed to be four :-) Ooops. Sorry about that. Hey let me know what you think about the almond butter thing, and if you try it =) Thanks!

You could try removing the peel and pit from an avocado and freezing that in chunks then blending that in with the icecream. I have heard avocado makes a good fudge too. And avocado doesn't have the strong distinctive taste like a banana. AND :) Acocado has a lower glycemic index than a banana I believe too (I think). I may try this with avocado and almond milk. I haven't tried this though but I have used avocado in smoothies and it blends to a very nice, smooth consistency (creamy) YUM!!! :)

I have never tried/thought or frozen bananas in this. I'll try it tomorrow and let you know how it turns out. I put some bananas in the freezer a little while back and have not used them yet, so I will tomorrow!
