Make Quick "Ice Cream" with Only Frozen Bananas [Recipes]

via Lifehacker by Kevin Purdy on 8/31/09

If you've got five minutes and some cream and vanilla hanging around, you can whip up the justifiably popular five-minute ice cream. Even quicker and less complicated, however, is blending some frozen bananas into a smooth, creamy dessert.

One seriously enthusiastic Instructables user illustrates the magic that happens when frozen bananas meet a blender or food processor. At first, the fruit may seem to resist the transformation, but persevere with your powered blades, and soon you'll have a nice alternative to heavier frozen desserts. It's a tactic The Kitchn blog has also endorsed, and it's inspiring us to dig out the food processor for one last summer evening treat.
