The Best Way to Freeze Bananas For Ice Cream
When freezing bananas for ice cream, peel them first (or the peel will become stuck) and then cut them into coins. Cut banana slices into 1/2-inch to 1-inch-thick slices. It helps to blend smoothly without overworking your food processor.
Once sliced, arrange them in a single layer on a large baking sheet covered with parchment paper, which helps to keep the slices from sticking to the pan. Freeze until hardened, preferably overnight. Transfer to a zip-lock bag once frozen.
Ideas For Topping Variations
Try one of the following toppings to boost the flavor:
- Cinnamon and caramel
- Berries with chocolate
- Peanut butter and jam (Pb&J)
- Cookie crumbs and cinnamon
- M&M’s and caramel
