Once the bananas are frozen, place them in a high-powered blender. Add the Greek yogurt and, if desired, vanilla extract and cinnamon. Blend until creamy and smooth. If your blender has trouble processing frozen bananas, you can add a little extra yogurt to make the process easier.
3. Serve or store:
The light banana ice cream can be enjoyed immediately, simply blended to achieve a soft-serve consistency. If you prefer a firmer consistency, transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and place it in the freezer for at least 1 to 2 hours. Remember to let it soften at room temperature for a few minutes before serving.
Additional tips:
- Flavor variations: You can enrich your ice cream by adding other ingredients such as dark chocolate pieces, chopped nuts, or a teaspoon of peanut butter.
- Natural Sweeteners: If you want an even sweeter ice cream, you can add a little honey or maple syrup, while keeping the sugar content very low compared to traditional ice cream.
- Greek yogurt: Greek yogurt is high in protein and gives the ice cream a creamy texture. You can use low-fat Greek yogurt for an even lighter version.
