CREAMY BANANA ICE CREAM



Creamy Banana Ice Cream image

A light and creamy ice cream, not overly sweet with sugar, and a perfect strong banana flavor. It is so good I could eat the whole recipe myself! It is way better than any store bought ice cream! Tips for the bananas, I peel and freeze bananas when they get too ripe to eat instead of throwing them away. When I come up with enough of them, it's ice cream time! And since the bananas are already frozen it helps freeze the ice cream quicker!

Time 4h

Yield 20 1/2 cup, 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup sugar
3 tablespoons flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 cups 1% low-fat milk (for richer ice cream use whole milk)
3 eggs
4 cups mashed bananas (about 7 extra-ripe bananas)
2 cups half-and-half

Steps:

  • In heavy, 3 quart saucepan with spoon, combine sugar, flour and salt. In medium bowl with hand mixer beat milk and eggs together until well blended. Stir into sugar mixture until smooth. Cook over low heat Stirring constantly for about 15-30 minutes or until it thickens. Cool in fridge for approximately 2 hours.
  • When the egg mixture is cool, stir mashed bananas, and half and half into the egg mixture.
  • Pour into your ice cream freezer, and follow manufacturer's directions.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • To achieve a smooth and creamy texture, use ripe bananas and freeze them beforehand. This will make them easier to blend and will prevent the ice cream from becoming icy.
  • For a richer flavor, use heavy cream instead of milk. You can also add in a tablespoon or two of vanilla extract or other flavorings of your choice.
  • If you don't have an ice cream maker, you can still make this recipe. Simply pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 4 hours, stirring every 30 minutes or so to prevent ice crystals from forming.
  • Serve the ice cream immediately, or store it in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Be sure to let it soften for a few minutes before serving.

This creamy banana ice cream is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. It is made with just a few simple ingredients and can be customized to your liking.
