  • How To Make Plant-Based Banana Ice-Cream

Making vegan, plant-based ice-cream is hands down one of the easiest foods and desserts to prepare.

You don’t need any special equipment and all you really need is one ingredient. Now, you might be a little skeptical, but hear me out. It’s all about waiting until your bananas are beautifully spotted and soft.

This is the best way to do this. Of course, if soggy and slimy bananas freak you out, you could use unripe bananas, but you’ll end up with ice-cream that unsweetened and you’ll feel tempted to throw in whatever sweeteners you have on hand.

This. Is. Why. You. Need. Ripe. Bananas.
