Servings 2
Ingredients
- 2 bananas, sliced, frozen
- 1 13,5 oz coconut cream, full fat (solid part only) *see note below
- 1/2 cup dates, soaked at least 30 minutes and drained
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon blue spirulina powder
Instructions
- Note: Place the can of coconut cream in the fridge or freezer for at least two hours before making nice cream to allow coconut cream to separate.Open chilled can and scoop out the cream that has separated and set hard on the top. Save the remaining coconut water to use in a smoothie, to drink, or discard.Place all ingredients into a food processor or high speed blender and start blending on its lowest speed, then quickly increase to the highest speed, using the tamper to press ingredients toward the blades. Blend for 30 to 45 seconds or until smooth and creamy.You can eat the nice cream straight out of the blender if you like the soft-serve texture. For a firmer texture, spoon the mixture into a dish and set it in the freezer for about 30 minutes until it firms up. Then just scoop, serve, and enjoy!Serve straight away or freeze for later. If frozen, allow to thaw for 20 minutes to let it soften before scooping.
