I took the kids on a long bike ride today several times around the Furman Lake and they were exhausted. This cold treat was the perfect thing to perk everyone back up. Plus it has only three ingredients- frozen cherries, frozen bananas, and shredded coconut!
Cherry Banana Ice Cream with Coconut
Tip: Slice ripe bananas (with little brown sugar spots on them) and place them in freezable containers with wax paper dividing the layers. Store them in the freezer so can make smoothies or this banana “ice cream” whenever you want.
Ingredients
1 cup frozen banana slices
1 cup pitted frozen sweet cherries (I used Publix)
shredded coconut
Directions
Remove the bananas and cherries from the freezer and let them thaw slightly for about 15 minutes (or partially defrost them in the microwave). Transfer them into the bowl of a food processor and process until blended. I like a few little chunks of cherries in it so I didn’t blend it completely. Transfer to serving bowls and top with a little bit of shredded coconut. Serve immediately. (Serves 2-3)
