Servings 2

Ingredients

2 ripe bananas, sliced, frozen
1 1/2 cups strawberries, fresh or frozen
1 scoop chocolate or vanilla protein powder
1-2 tablespoons cacao powder or cocoa powder
2-4 tablespoons almond milk (or milk of choice)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Optional Toppings

Dark chocolate chips
Melted chocolate drizzle
Fresh strawberries
Coconut flakes
Nut butter drizzle
Granola

Instructions

Place frozen bananas, strawberries, protein powder, cacao powder, almond milk, and vanilla into a high-speed blender or food processor.
Blend until crumbly at first, then creamy and smooth. Scrape down the sides as needed.
Add small splashes of milk only if necessary - less liquid creates thicker nice cream.
Serve immediately to enjoy soft-serve style, or freeze for 20–30 minutes for a firmer scoopable texture.
Top with chocolate chips, berries, or anything you love.
Blended Bites Tips 💡
The riper the bananas before freezing, the sweeter your nice cream will be.
Use frozen strawberries for the thickest texture.
Want extra creaminess? Add a spoon of Greek yogurt or coconut cream.
Want more protein? Add collagen peptides.
Turn leftovers into popsicles by freezing in moulds.
