i made it for breakfast this morning, it brings back memories

the trick is to use overripe bananas and to cut them before you freeze them so they need less processing. that way they dont melt as much and stay in ice cream mode longer. yes!

1c frozen nanas
1tsp cinammon
few tbsp water (ben says not to add water but i dont think it matters much)

put it all in a foodprocessor and pulse until it looks creamy. you have to eat it fast cause its kind of gross when it melts. but really, everyone whos eaten this stuff loves it.

    OOkay... I've been reading so many 'opinions' about how to freeze bananas. I was just freezing them peeled, then someone said - freeze them unpeeled, now you suggest cutting them.... are you cutting them while they're in the peel or do you peel them first? (now I tried the freeze in the peel - and i really didn't like it)... have you tried several methods of freezing?

    peel them and then cut them. trying to remove frozen banana peels is hellish.

    ive experimented a little, yeah, and freezing them after peeling and cutting them is definitely the most convenient.
