Bad Banana's = Yummy Frozen Yogurt
I have had my ice cream maker for about 3 years now. I never used but maybe twice. I love ice cream, but the cream I can do without, so I just don't make it. So today I decided I was going to experiment with non-fat Greek yogurt and banana's. I had like 8 banana's that were VERY ripe. I am amazed at how both of these turned out, they are very creamy in texture, flavor is awesome, and it was so easy. I added cinnamon and a touch of nutmeg to the banana blueberry, yum!
Chocolate Banana Frozen Yogurt
2 Banana's, ripe
3Tbls Cocoa powder (unsweetened)
1.5 cup Coconut Milk
1 cup Greek yogurt, plain non-fat
2-3 Tbls Agave syrup or a few packets of Truvia
Combine in processor, let mixture chill and hour or two then pour into ice cream mixer for about 20 min. Transfer to freezer.
Banana Blueberry Frozen Yogurt
4-5 Banana's, ripe
1 1/3 c Plain Greek yogurt, non-fat
1/4 c Honey, orange blossom was really nice in here
1 t Cinnamon
1/8 t Nutmeg, fresh ground
1/4 c Almond milk
1/2 c Blueberries, frozen
Puree banana with yogurt and honey then add all other ingredients except blueberries.
Chill mixture in fridge for an hour then pour into ice cream maker. Put frozen blueberries into the maker at the end just so they get mixed in. Transfer to freezer.
So that's my creations for the day, well actually I made some navy bean soup, but I'll talk about that later. If you ever make anything I do, let me know what you think.
Bye For Now
