Make Matcha Ice Cream without a machine
The warmth of summer is upon us, which just means one thing – it's the ideal opportunity for frozen yogurt! In the mid year months, I am about accommodation in the kitchen, it's dreadfully toasty to be slaving over prepared products or upsetting particular kitchen devices. Brisk and simple, this special, cold treat will completely take your breath away. Surprisingly better, it is normally veggie lover and incredible for paleo eaters, as well. There are no sweeteners and you even get a little lift from the matcha green tea! What's more, that colour! A swoon-commendable, dynamic summer-motivated green!
This 3-Ingredient Banana Matcha Ice Cream couldn't be more basic. Actually only three fixings and can be made without a frozen yogurt machine. With a food processor or a top notch fast blender, you'll have solid frozen yogurt in the blink of an eye. Serve promptly as a soft serve or stop until the point when hard and scoop like conventional dessert.
3 bananas, peeled, sliced and frozen overnight
3 tablespoons full fat coconut milk (or other non-dairy milk)
1 tablespoon Magic Matcha powder
DO AHEAD: Start with ripe bananas that are soft and sweet, these make for the best ice cream. Slice the bananas, place into a freezer-safe bowl, container or bag. Freeze for a few hours, but preferably overnight.
Just before making the ice cream, add the coconut milk (or other non-dairy milk) to a small bowl and add the matcha powder. Whisk well to fully combined, it will form a paste.
Remove the bananas from the freezer and place into a food processor or high speed blender. Pulse a few times to break down the bananas into smaller pieces.
Then, add the matcha paste and continue blending the banana. It will be crumbly at first, then will begin to mush up a bit. The longer it blends, it will start to get creamy and the texture will shift into a soft serve-style ice cream.
Add any optional ingredients here, by folding in. Taste the mixture and add sweetener if necessary, the need for this is both personal preference and it will depend on the sweetness of your bananas. I generally don’t add any sweetener.
You can eat the ice cream right away as soft serve or place into an air-tight, freezer-safe container and freeze until solid, then scoop like traditional ice cream.
