Chocolate Banana Lite Ice Cream

Chocolate Banana Lite Ice Cream

A creamy chocolate banana lite ice cream with natural sweetness from ripe bananas and a mild cocoa flavor. It feels fun and dessert-like, but keeps the base simple and fruit-forward.

Prepare the base

  1. Peel the bananas and mash them thoroughly with a fork until soft and almost smooth.

  2. Add the milk, Greek yogurt, and cocoa powder.

  3. Whisk until the cocoa is fully incorporated and the base is smooth.

Freeze and spin

  1. Pour the mixture into a Ninja CREAMi pint, without exceeding the MAX FILL line.

  2. Close with the storage lid and freeze flat for 24 hours.

  3. Once fully frozen, run the LITE ICE CREAM program.

  4. If the texture is powdery or crumbly after the first cycle, run RE-SPIN.

    Still not right after re-spinning? See how to fix the texture.

Serve

Serve immediately, while the ice cream is still nice and creamy.

Storing leftovers

Flatten any remaining ice cream to level the surface before returning the pint to the freezer. This will make the next spin easier and reduce unnecessary strain on the machine. Learn more about after-serving habits.

Tips

  • Use very ripe bananas, because they provide most of the sweetness.
  • If your bananas are not very ripe, add 10 to 15 g of honey before freezing.
  • For a stronger chocolate taste, add 2 to 3 g more cocoa powder.
