TIPS FOR MAKING VEGAN ICE CREAM
- Start with frozen banana pieces, not whole bananas. That would just be too hard for your blender.
- You can use any nut butter you would like. Just note that peanut butter will have an overwhelmingly peanut butter flavor – so you really have to be going for that banana peanut butter flavor profile.
- Use a splash of plant based milk of any kind (I typically do banana almond milk or banana oat milk ice cream.)
