Ingredients
Banana Ice Cream:
- 4 ripe bananas sliced and frozen
Peanut Brittle:
- ½ cup peanuts shelled and roughly chopped
- 2 tablespoon maple syrup
- fine sea salt to taste
Instructions
- If your bananas aren’t frozen yet, slice them into ½ inch-thick discs and freeze.
- Make the peanut brittle. Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Then, prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Place the chopped peanuts in the center of the baking sheet, pour maple syrup, and mix them together. Season with salt and gently spread the mixture evenly, in a single layer, on the baking sheet.
- Bake for about 8 to 10 minutes or until the edges are lightly browned. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool down and crisp up.
- To serve, place the frozen banana slices in a food processor and blend until smooth (roughly about 5 minutes). Transfer to a serving plate or cup and top with peanut brittle.
Notes
- Feel free to add more vegan toppings such as frozen or fresh berries, dried fruits, nuts, and more.
