Dairy free chocolate ice-cream!




One thing you can't deprive your kids of (especially in the heat of an Australian Summer!) is ice-cream!
So what do you do then if your kids are dairy intolerant?

Ahhh, let me introduce another way that the humble banana can morph into your favourite dessert. Banana's, when frozen and blended, turn into a sticky, gooey, sweet treat with the same consistency as ice-cream. Add some cacao, coconut cream and honey and you have chocolate ice-cream. Yup, it's that simple folks.

Grab yourself a bag of bananas when they're on special and no-one else wants to buy them, cut them up and chuck them in the freezer, then make ice-cream on demand when you want to treat your kids.




Here's the recipe:

Chocolate Ice-cream

1 cup chopped and frozen bananas
1 cup Coconut Cream
1 Tb Cacao powder
1 Tb Honey

Blend all together till smooth.
Pour into a container and place in the freezer for 10 minutes.
Scoop out and into a cone just like you would with ice-cream.
Top with sprinkles and your kids will love you forever :-)
