Strawberry banana nice cream

Healthy desserts that are full of flavour are so handy to have when you’re craving something sweet and want to keep things light. Strawberry banana nice cream is just that kind of recipe for me. Bursting with fruit and full of all good things. 

Nice cream is literally a throw everything into the blender recipe. Made in minutes with so many variations. Plus, as you’ve been super healthy, getting towards your 5 a day with the nice cream, you can splash out on the toppings, why not. 

Simply swap out the yogurt for a vegan alternative if you want to make this plant based. 

Ingredients

250g frozen strawberries

2 large frozen bananas

Zest 1 orange 

25g Natural greek yogurt 

1 tsp vanilla extract 

Serves 2 

Method for strawberry banana nice cream 

Such a speedy recipe to put together. 

Pop the chopped banana pieces (I often freeze my bananas this way to keep things simple), strawberries, orange zest, yogurt and vanilla into a food processor. (I love my kitchen aid food processor for this. So quick and makes the nice cream silky smooth in seconds.)

Wizz until smooth and creamy. 

If the ice cream is a bit too thick, add in a little of the orange juice. 

You can serve this straight away or store in the freezer for a bit to firm up, depending on if you want a firm scoop or soft serve consistency. 

Best eaten straight away on the day you make it. 

This is such a yummy, healthy dessert in the summer. Great with a handful of granola for crunch too or a drizzle of chocolate too. Delicious.
