Blueberry and Banana 'Nicecream'

All scream for Nice Cream!!

I think Nice Cream is one of the best things invented ever. If you haven't tried it, or heard of it, where have you been! You are missing out. Nice cream, is an ice cream made of blended frozen bananas. It is super yummy. You can mix in any fruits that you want to flavor the nicecream, or add chocolate powder, and dates for a chocolatey flavor. 

I find that the bananas are quite hard to blend when frozen. But i don't have a super duper high speed blender. I find adding a little coconut water helps the mixing process, but it does create a wetter mix. You can refreeze after you have blended to make a scoopable ice cream. 

It is best to wait until your bananas are very ripe, black spotted, before you freeze them. This is a great way to use up any uneaten bananas, although i personally only eat really raw bananas anyway as they are easier to digest. 

Blueberry Nice Cream

4 Frozen ripe Bananas

1 cup frozen blueberries

A dash of coconut water

Any toppings you like ie cinnamon, fresh fruit, raisins :)

Blend frozen bananas, and coconut water until icecreamy texture. Either add the frozen blueberries and sir in with a spoon to create a 'ripple' or blend to flavor the ice cream. 

You can re-freeze the nicecream if you want it to be scoop-able, or it straight away. 

Raw Vegan Cookie Dough n'ice' cream [ with a salted caramel sauce ]

OHHH my Gosh this is amazing. It just tastes incredible and ive just consumed the whole bowl - and licked it! Who would have thought it. Raw vegan cookie dough ice cream! Sometimes i admire my mind for being so creative. Although other times i have no intelligent thoughts what so ever. So it balances out :)

Raw vegan ice cream is so simple to make. All you need is Bananas :). Frozen Bananas of course, and the riper they are before you freeze them, the better. Blended frozen bananas = ice cream, or NICE CREAM as i like to call it!

The salted caramel sauce is heavenly! Again super easy to make, just dates salt and water ( or almond milk). And the cookie dough from my wholefood vegan cookies.

Just what i needed to end the week, or start the new week!

Raw Vegan Cookie Dough ice cream [ with a salted caramel sauce ]

Nice Cream

2 frozen Bananas

(drop of almond milk if needed)

Salted Caramel Sauce

1 cup dates (soaked)

1/2 tsp rock salt

100ml water (or almond milk)

Cookie Dough

See my Wholefood cookie dough recipe here

Start by making the cookie dough.

I would advise making the salted caramel sauce before the nice cream, as it melts quickly.

To make the sauce, blend dates, salt and water or almond milk until smooth. Use almond milk instead of water if you prefer a thicker, creamy sauce. 

Take the bananas out of the freezer and blend in a food processor. If the bananas are not blending, try add little almond milk. 

Place nice cream in a bowl with cookie dough balls, and drizzle with salted caramel sauce. ;)

YUMMMMMMM
