Homemade Banana Softserve

If I make it...it MUST be easy.  I am no culinary artist.  I did not think of this all on my own.  HOWEVER, it works and it was delicious.  So try it at home and you can indulge in "ice cream" for just 1 point.

What you need:
BANANAS--Frozen Ripe Bananas.  Make sure you use REALLY ripe bananas to give this dessert more flavor.

What to do: 
--Cut your bananas into 1/2 inch discs. You can do this either before you freeze them or after they are frozen (they were super easy to cut when frozen).  **If you are cutting your bananas then freezing, it will take at least an hour for the bananas to freeze enough for this recipe. 

--Place Banana discs into a food processor or blender.

--Next, Turn processor or blender on.  Your bananas will go through many phases.  It will look like gravel, lumpy mashed potatoes, tapioca pudding, KEEP going.  You will need to stop and scrape the sides of the container several times.

--After just a few short minutes of blending and scraping, your bananas will magically turn into a seriously smooth, creamy soft serve "ice cream".

 

MY suggestions for toppings!!!  

This was good on it's own, but if you don't dig a straight up banana flavor here are some things you could add to it for 0-2 points more.

--Toppings

Fresh Fruit--Strawberries, Blueberries, Peaches, Pineapple
Fruit in Splenda--crush up your fresh fruit and mix in a packet of splenda.  let sit in the fridge for an hour or two to let a wonderful syrup evolve.

Peanut Butter--a tsp of peanut butter mixed in with this turned it into a dream.
Sugar Free Coolwhip--Add a tbsp to the top to make it creamy

Cinnamon and Splenda--mix up a packet of splenda with sprinkles of cinnamon.  Sprinkle on top or mix it in to your personal taste!

ENJOY!
