This No-Churn Banana Ice Cream is a creamy, dreamy dessert inspired by the classic banana pudding. With sweet bananas, crunchy vanilla wafers, and a velvety texture, this easy recipe comes together in minutes—no ice cream maker required! Perfect for summer days or anytime you’re craving a nostalgic treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups heavy cream (cold)
  • 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 (3.4 oz) box banana pudding mix (dry)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 large banana, sliced into halves
  • 1 cup crushed vanilla wafers, plus extra for topping

Instructions

  1. Whip the Cream: In a large bowl, beat cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
  2. Mix the Base: In another bowl, whisk together sweetened condensed milk, banana pudding mix, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. Combine Mixtures: Gently fold the pudding mixture into the whipped cream using a spatula. It’s okay if there are streaks of white—it adds character!
  4. Add Mix-ins: Fold in sliced bananas and crushed vanilla wafers until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
  5. Freeze: Pour the mixture into a 9”x5” loaf pan or freezer-safe container. Smooth the top and sprinkle with extra crushed wafers for added crunch. Cover tightly with plastic wrap or foil and freeze for 4–6 hours, or until firm.
  6. Serve & Enjoy: Scoop into bowls or cones and enjoy your homemade banana ice cream!

Notes

Serving Suggestions

  • Serve in bowls or waffle cones with caramel drizzle or extra crushed wafers for garnish.

Tips & Tricks

  • Use ripe bananas for maximum sweetness and flavor.
  • Chill your mixing bowl and beaters before whipping cream for faster results.
  • Avoid overwhipping the cream to maintain a light texture.

Storage & Reheating

  • Store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Let it sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes before scooping to soften slightly.
