Strawberry banana nice cream
Ingredients
Step by step process
Freezing the fruit
- 1
Strawberry banana nice cream relies on well ripened bananas and good quality strawberries. Peel the bananas and slice them into rounds about 2 cm thick.
TIP:Evenly sliced bananas ensure faster and more uniform blending, resulting in a smooth and silky texture without lumps and a balanced flavor for the smoothie.

Spread the banana rounds together with the strawberries on a plate lined with baking paper so the pieces do not touch, then freeze for at least 3 hours, ideally overnight. Frozen strawberries can go straight in from the bag.
Blending and serving
- 3
Tip the frozen fruit into a strong blender and pulse briefly. The mixture first turns crumbly, so scrape down the sides a few times with a spatula.
- 4
Keep blending until the fruit comes together into a smooth creamy texture resembling soft serve. It takes 2 to 4 minutes, and the mixture takes on a vivid pink color along the way.
- 5
If the mixture tastes very tart, stir in a spoonful of maple syrup and a few drops of lemon juice to round out the flavor. Taste and adjust to your liking.
- 6
Scoop the finished ice cream into bowls and serve right away while it is soft. For a firmer texture, return it to the freezer for 20 minutes.
More tips:
Freeze the bananas only once they have brown spots on the skin. The sweeter flesh blends smooth and balances the tartness of the strawberries without any added sugar.
