Ingredients
Scale
2–3 ripe bananas, cut into chunks
½ cup whole milk
½ cup sweet cream-flavored coffee creamer
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
Optional: 1 tablespoon milk (for re-spin, if needed)
Instructions
Blend the Base: Combine bananas, milk, coffee creamer, and vanilla bean paste in a blender. Blend briefly until smooth and creamy. Avoid over-blending.
Freeze: Pour the mixture into a Ninja Creami pint container, ensuring it doesn’t exceed the max fill line. Smooth the surface, cover with the lid, and freeze on a flat surface for 24 hours.
Process: After freezing, remove the lid and place the pint into the Ninja Creami outer bowl. Lock it into the machine and select the “Ice Cream” function. Let it churn until smooth.
Adjust Texture (if needed): If the ice cream appears crumbly or dry, add 1 tablespoon of milk to the center and use the “Re-spin” function until creamy. Repeat if necessary.
Serve & Enjoy: Scoop into bowls or cones and enjoy immediately!
Notes
Serving Suggestions:
Top with banana slices, chocolate chips, or a drizzle of caramel for extra indulgence.
Tips & Tricks:
Use very ripe bananas for natural sweetness.
Freeze on a level surface to ensure even consistency.
Re-spin as needed to achieve your desired texture.
Storage & Reheating:
Store leftovers in the Ninja Creami pint container with the lid secured for up to one week in the freezer.
To serve again, let it sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes or re-spin in the Ninja Creami to restore creaminess.
