Dairy Free

Matcha 'Nice Cream'

St. Patrick's Day is next week and I don't know about you, but I'm always looking for new and interesting green food ideas to make.  We're all Irish that day, right?  ;-)

With a couple of frozen bananas in my freezer that I wanted to use up, I had an idea...

But of course...Matcha Nice Cream.  This is a dairy- and gluten-free version of ice cream that you do not need an ice cream maker for!  And, get this…you only need 3 ingredients.

Ingredients:

  • 2 large bananas, sliced and frozen
  • 1/3 cup non-dairy milk (cashew milk used here)
  • 2 T matcha (green tea) powder

Directions:

  1. Combine all ingredients in a food processor or blender until creamy.
  2. Spoon into freezer-safe container.  
  3. Eat as is for a soft-serve consistency or freeze for 1-2 hours for a traditional ice cream texture.  If you're feeling fancy, use an ice cream scooper.

Enjoy this healthy sweet treat alone or with Leprechauns…whatever!  ;-)

In good health,

Tara
