Ingredients
  

  • 3 ripe bananas broken into chunks and frozen
  • 1/2 TSP peppermint extract
  • 2 TBSP cocoa powder
  • 2 oz {dairy free} chocolate Pictured, I use dark chocolate mint bark
  • 1 TBSP dark chocolate hazelnut butter optional

Instructions
 

  • If using chocolate chips, skip to the next step. If using solid chocolate, roughly chop it, then set aside.
  • Add the frozen banana pieces, peppermint extract and cocoa powder to your food processor or high-powered blender. Process until it forms a creamy mixture. This will take a few minutes, and you may need to scrape down the sides of the mixture with a spoon once or twice.
  • Add in the chocolate. Process again just until the chocolate is blended into the ice cream. I like to leave some chocolate chunks in there!
  • Spoon the ice cream into two small bowls and swirl in the chocolate hazelnut butter if using. Enjoy immediately! Alternatively, if you prefer your banana ice cream thicker, swirl the hazelnut butter into the mixture, then stick it in the freezer for 1-2 hours before scooping into bowls and enjoying.

Notes
