If you are looking for a healthy frozen treat, you HAVE to learn how to make this simple 2 ingredient Strawberry Banana Ice Cream at home.It is clean eating, dairy free, vegan, paleo and requires no added sugar. Kids love this homemade strawberry ice cream and it is a great recipe to get them involved in the process.
If not using store-bought frozen fruit, peel the banana and slice it. Freeze the banana slices and strawberries for at least 4 hours - better yet overnight. (Reusable silicone bags are a great alternative to plastic freezer bags.)
Place the frozen strawberries and banana slices into a food processor or a high speed blender (see notes above).
Process the fruit until smooth. It will be very loud at first and the fruit will look like crumbles. But eventually it breaks down to a smooth consistency. You may need to stop the machine and scrape down the side once or twice.
For soft serve texture, serve the strawberry banana ice cream right after blending. For firmer ice cream consistency transfer the nice cream to a sealable container and freeze for at least 2 hours. For easier scooping afterwards, let the ice cream sit on the counter for a few minutes first.
Notes
This recipe makes 1 generous portion. Simply multiply the recipe to increase servings. Processing times may be a little longer but the process is actually smoother (with less need for scraping down the sides) when the food processor container is fuller.
