Banana Ice Cream

Ingredients;

• Bananas
• Mix-ins of your choice (ie. peanut butter, chocolate chips, strawberries, berries, the possibilities are endless!!)
  
  

Directions: 

• Pick a couple of ripe bananas. They should be sweet and soft but not too mushy.
• Peel the bananas.
• Cut them into coins.
• Freeze the banana pieces for at least an hour or two.
• Frozen hard!
• Put the pieces into a food processor or blender.
• Blend on high. Initially they will look crumbly and piecemeal.
• The mixture will probably get stuck a lot. Keep scraping down the bowl.
• Suddenly, as you keep blending, you will see a change.
• The bananas turn creamy!
• Now is the time to add a scoop of peanut butter or anything else you care to mix in.
• The ice cream will be the texture of soft-serve, but if you freeze again in an airtight container, it will get harder and more like regular ice cream.

Did this today. DELICIOUS.

Snickerdoodle Blondies. (Vegan, 72 calories a piece!)

-1 can chickpeas (240g drained), 3 tbsp peanut butter, 1 tbsp apple sauce, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 2 tsp vanilla, 2 tsp cinnamon, 3/4 tsp baking powder, 1/4 tsp baking soda, 1/6 cup oatbran or flour.

• Put everything in to a food processor and blend until combined, producing a thick, fudgey consistency. Pour in to a tinfoil lined 8x8 tin and bake for 30-35 minutes at 175C/350F.
• Allow to cool for at least ten minutes before removing from the pan, as they firm up a little when cooling. They will still be relatively gooey when you take them out of the oven. Cut in to 16, enjoy!

These are surprisingly delicious. It just tastes like fudgey peanut-buttery cinnamon goodness. 6 people have tried them, and no one guessed there was chickpeas in there! :)

[Edit: Don’t reduce the sugar content. I made one with 3/4 cup, one with 1/2 cup, one with 1/4 cup and 1/4 cup was too savoury.]

yum! gotta get some brown sugar then i’m doing this!
