Roasted Banana Ice Cream
How can you make banana ice cream better - by roasting the bananas with butter and brown sugar beforehand! Yes, roasted banana ice cream!
Ingredients
- 3 soft banana
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- ⅓ cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
- 1½ cup whole milk
- 1½ tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ coarse salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400F (200C). If you have a fan-assisted oven, preheat to 350F (180C) and cook for the same time!
- Slice the bananas into 1/2-inch pieces and toss them with the brown sugar and butter in a 2-quart baking dish.
- Bake in the oven for about 40 minutes, stirring once about 20 minutes in during baking. Make sure the bananas are browned and cooked through.
- Don't let the sugar darken too much - so watch the last few minutes.
- Remove from oven and add it all to a food processor or high powered blender. Then add the milk, sugar, vanilla, lemon juice, and salt, and purée until smooth.
- Cover and put in the fridge for at least two hours, but I would do overnight
- Make it according to the manufacturer’s instructions. (I always use my Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker)*
- Wow everyone by serving it immediately or store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
Notes
*Cuisinart users:
- Pour in the ice cream mixture, add the ice cream paddle and then turn it on
- I set the timer for 35 minutes
- You can always churn it longer if you want it harder
- Put it in the freezer to harden up some more
