Cooking with Kids - Banana Ice Cream

Peel the ripe bananas and slice them into small pieces.

Place the banana slices in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze for about 2 hours until solid.

Once frozen, transfer the banana slices to a food processor.

Add the vanilla extract and almond milk to the food processor with the frozen bananas.

Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.

If using, add peanut butter and blend again until fully incorporated.

For a chocolate chip version, stir in chocolate chips after blending.

Serve immediately for a soft-serve texture or transfer to a container and freeze for an additional 1-2 hours for a firmer texture.

Scoop and enjoy your homemade banana ice cream!
