In the past, I've made different variations of banana soft serve for friends, family, and in my cooking classes, and everyone is surprised at how creamy and decadent processed, frozen bananas and some simple superfoods and spices can be. Another healthy dessert option brought to you by Mother Nature.
Freezing bananas ahead of time will keep you well-stocked for those soft-serve cravings that might just strike at all hours of the day and night. This recipe uses bananas, cacao powder, a dash of cinnamon and vanilla, and some fresh mint to create a luscious palette of cooling flavours that will kick those taste buds into simple dessert heaven.
Banana Cacao-Mint Soft Serve
Serves 1-2
2-3 large, frozen bananas, chopped
1 tbsp raw cacao powder
1 tsp cinnamon (optional)
1 tsp vanilla (optional)
1-2 tbsp fresh, chopped mint
a few mint sprigs for garnish
Place the ingredients in your food processor. Using the 's' blade, process the mixture until it starts to resemble an ice cream, or soft serve, consistency. Scoop out the desired amount and serve in a dish of your choice, topped with a sprig of mint, sprinkle of cacao or cinnamon, or even some cacao nibs. Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy your healthy dessert, my friends.
