This creamy banana ice cream is delicious, easy to make and good for you. Yep, this is a healthy ice cream you can enjoy guilt free. This is a Weight Watchers approved recipe. No ice cream maker required.
Peel and cut bananas into thin slices. Place banana slices in a plastic freezer-safe bag and place in the freezer until frozen.
Add yogurt, cream cheese, vanilla extract, and frozen banana slices to powerful blender or food processor and blend until completely smooth. (If necessary, add 2-3 tablespoons of water to the blender to loosen the mixture).
While blending, drizzle in honey or sugar substitute until thoroughly combined with other ingredients. Once blended, taste mixture and add more honey, if desired.
Transfer contents of the blender to a freezer-safe dish and cover tightly. Place in the freezer for a minimum of 4 hours or overnight.
To serve, remove from freezer and let sit on the counter for 5-10 minutes to soften. Scoop into individual chilled serving dishes and garnish with slices of fresh banana or other favorite toppings.
Notes
Tip: Regular vanilla extract will affect the color of this dish. To prevent this, choose a clear vanilla extract instead. However, be sure to read labels carefully because most clear extracts are imitation.
