Dark Cherry Chocolate ‘Nana’ Ice Cream

August 8, 2014 by Sarah

Sweet summertime and fresh cherries from a roadside stand=some pure Michigan bliss. I’ve always had that beautiful association since I was a kid having cherry pit spitting contests with my siblings in the street. Check out some of these oldies I dug up from freshman year of high school. Am I a flattering cherry pit spitter or what?

When I had cherries I needed to eat up so they wouldn’t go bad, I couldn’t think of a better solution than to make some banana ice cream. Still my favorite treat because you really can’t feel an ounce of guilt for eating any of the ingredients below.

Recipe type: Dessert, Ice Cream
Serves: 2-3
Ingredients
  • 4 bananas, frozen
  • 1 cup cherries, pitted
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1 heaping tbsp. raw cacao powder
  • ¼ tsp. of sea salt
  • non-dairy milk (I used almond), as needed
Instructions
  1. Place the frozen bananas into a food processor and process until bananas become the consistency of soft-serve ice cream (you may need to add milk to assist or speed up the process).
  2. Add remaining ingredients, reserving a ½ cup of cherries, and process until smooth.
  3. Add the last of the cherries, and process for only 5-10 seconds so larger pieces of the cherries are distributed throughout the ice cream.
