During these (down) dog days of summer, a cold and refreshing snack is a great way to cool off!
Ever want ice-cream but dont have your favorite on hand? I love a good nice cream because a bag of frozen banana pieces always lives in my freezer for smoothies. With a few simple ingredients and my food processor, I can create a sweet treat out of ingredients I know and love.
Here are all of the ingredient you will need to get started:
4 medium ripe bananas, cut into slices and frozen
8 Oreo cookies
2 T peanut butter
1/4-1/2 c plant milk
Instructions
1) Cut bananas, lay on baking sheet in single layer and freeze for 12 hours
2) Place frozen bananas, peanut butter, three Oreo cookies, and 1/4 cup of plant milk in a powerful bender or food processor.
3) Puree till smooth, adding more milk if needed
4) Add three more Oreos and pulse for five seconds
5) Place nice cream in a cup and top with more Oreos, banana slices, or peanuts
6) If too soft, place in freezer for 15-20 minutes till firm
