Get the Scoop on a Healthier Summer

One of our favorite summer treats is one-ingredient banana “ice cream”. I love to slice overripe bananas and freeze them so we can make banana ice cream anytime we get a craving. It’s dairy-free, but the kids think it’s real ice cream and are completely satisfied with it. It’s so much healthier so I’m thrilled they love it so much.

One day I was thinking how could I make a ready-to-go banana ice cream for the kids to eat poolside.So I scooped the ice cream into mini muffin cups so we can enjoy these little ice cream bites without having to use bowls or spoons.

• Remove frozen bananas from the freezer and let set out for about 5 minutes while you set up your food processor or high-speed blender. You want the bananas to softened just a bit, but still be frozen.
• Place the bananas in the food processor and pulse/blend until smooth and creamy.

• Stir in 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips.
• Grease a mini muffin pan with non-stick cooking spray.
• Scoop the banana ice cream into each cup of the muffin pan, filling each one almost full.
• Then sprinkle the top of each cup with a few more mini chocolate chips.

How to Store 2-Ingredient Banana Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Bites

To store, stack them in a freezer safe container with parchment paper between each layer of bites to prevent them from sticking together.

When ready to eat, remove however many bites you want from the freezer container and let set out to thaw for a few minutes before eating.

They store great in the freezer for up to 3 months.
