Ingredients
- 7 oz bananas (peeled, frozen)
- 7 oz strawberries (cleaned, frozen)
- 5 oz sweetened vegetable whipping cream (chilled)
Steps
Peel the bananas, slice them not too thick, and freeze them in a container or on a tray. Wash and clean the strawberries, pat them dry with kitchen paper to absorb excess water, cut them into small pieces (in two or four parts depending on their size), and freeze them in a bowl or on a tray. You can keep them from a few hours to overnight, the important thing is that they have firmed up otherwise you will not get the ice cream effect.
Put them in a food processor along with the sweetened whipping cream.
Start operating the blades, at first it will struggle a bit since the fruit is frozen.
Slowly the fruit will defrost and a fruit cream will form. You can already enjoy it like this or put it in the freezer a bit to firm it up further, depending on your taste. If you want, you can enrich it with fruit or a topping of your choice!
Suggestions, Tips
I recommend using a rather powerful food processor, I tried with my blender, but it probably wasn’t powerful enough for the amount of fruit I used and the fact that it was frozen.
