Latest Experiment: Chocolate Banana Ice Cream
I made almond milk by blending a bit of water with a handful of almonds. Then I strained it all using a hemp bag. I put the leftover pulp into the dehydrator to later sprinkle on the ice cream, to add a bit of crunch and texture.
With the Vitamix, I blended together a bit of raw cacao nibs, a few frozen bananas and the almond milk. Then I put that in the freezer. It sort of froze like a skating rink – with the top being hard, and the bottom being softer. So I reblended it later to make the texture consistant.
To add extra sweetness and make it more interesting, I added chopped banana slices, after sprinkling dried almond crumbles from earlier.
This was a success, and was reasonably easy to make. I will get very quick at it, because there are steps I can combine to make the process more efficient.
Freakin’ Delicious.
