Recipe for Frozen Banana Dessert

How about a delicious dessert with just one ingredient that takes only minutes to make? It tastes like ice cream, but it contains absolutely no dairy products at all. Here is how I made it.

Ingredients

• Bananas (2 per portion)

Preparation

• Peel the bananas and place inside a freezer bag. 
• Put the bag into the freezer and leave until the bananas have frozen thoroughly.
• Remove the bag from the freezer and thinly slice the bananas
• Place in a blender and blend until the banana turns into a smooth, thick pulp
• Spoon into serving glasses and return to the freezer for no more than a half hour
• Eat right away

John's Notes
Make sure you have a blender with muscles, because it is tough job to reduce the frozen banana slices to a pulp. My old blender groaned, growled and complained but eventually got the job done. The process of blending the frozen bananas to a pulp creates a lot of heat which partially defrosts the bananas. That is why I recommend returning the finished product to the freezer for a short time. If your blender is powerful enough to make quick work of the job you may not need to refreeze.

And finally, this is a perfect recipe for using up old bananas whose skins are turning brown. In fact, it works best with very ripe bananas because the flesh of the fruit is very tender.
