2. A Simple Banana Ice Cream (Dairy)
Now, I begin the other variations of my banana ice cream adventure. This variation is a notch up from the basic one as condensed milk (dairy) is added to it.
Ingredients: Simple Banana Ice Cream (Dairy)
1 1/2 cup ripe banana, chopped and frozen
2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp. almond essence
1/2 tsp. coconut essence
4 tbsp condensed milk (you can also use cream, plain or flavored yogurt)
Directions:
Wrap and freeze the banana in plastic wrap. Unwrap frozen banana and place in a food processor or blender along with the other ingredients. Blend until smooth and freeze. Serve frozen plain or with your favourite ice cream topping or fruits.

Felix! This is an amazing, amazing post. Please believe me when I tell you that nothing is a coincidence! Right before I checked the site for new posts, I was looking up recipes for “vegan condensed milk recipes”! My Dad has asthma and should not use milk but is a lover of ice cream! I tell you Felix, nothing is coincidence! 🙂 I so look forward to subbing vegan condensed milk for the regular condensed milk to make these recipes! What do you think of combining bananas with real guava fruit?
DC that’s the type of creativity I’m talking about. Guava is a real companion to banana. I could taste it already 🙂
Felix, you know what I had years ago? Avocado ice cream. The only person I knew who made it was a lady who made it at home and sold it in front of her house years ago. I thought to myself “Zaboca ice cream, your’re kidding” but to this day this is one of my all time favorite food memories! Unfortunately I don’t see her around anymore. If she has “left us”, I hope she passed the recipe to someone in her family. I sometimes wonder how many wonderful recipes we have lost when the old people finally leave us. How many old creole dishes of yesteryear are just plain and simply gone? Well, nothing like inventing new dishes so I might just try banana and avocado and see how that turns out!!!
That Avocado ice cream seems like something worth hunting down. I’m up to it so I’ll start doing some digging on my side.
Felix – you know, come to think about it, one of my first cookbooks (all those years ago) was Beryl Wood’s “Caribbean Fruits and Vegetables”. “Yuh not findin’ dat book on de shelves again atall!”
I believe there may be an avocado ice cream recipe in that…i have to look it up and see if my memory serves me correctly when I get home…If there is one, I will post it here for you if you don’t mind?
Email me and I’ll get to work on it.
