Strawberry Coco-Banana Ice Cream (dairy-free)

Jump to Recipe

Strawberry Coco-Banana Ice Cream (dairy free) savorylotus.com

Banana “ice cream” has been our dessert of choice lately.  It’s so easy to whip up in the food processor in  just minutes.  It’s dairy-free.  It’s super yummy.   And with no added sugars, I can feel good about serving it to my kids whenever they want it.  There is something about the way I feel when I see my little one enjoying a healthy treat that I made for her.

Today’s version is Strawberry Coco-Banana.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ripe bananas, frozen
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 2 TBS full-fat coconut milk (canned)
  • 1 TBS coconut oil (like this)

FOR GARNISH

  • shredded coconut (like this), unsweetened

Instructions

  1. Puree bananas, coconut oil, and 2 TBS coconut milk in food processor until creamy smooth
  2. Add strawberries and process until well combined and desired consistency (add more coconut milk if needed)
  3. Serve immediately or store in freezer

Notes

Slicing bananas into small pieces before freezing will make processing them easier. For best results, defrost bananas for 5-10 minutes before processing And if you store in freezer for later, let sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving.

    I love my frozen desserts that are similar, and the addition of coconut milk/oil is great. Going to make this next time!

    I’ve been on a restricted diet without dairy, and this sounds like a great alternative to ice cream for me. Thanks for sharing the recipe and the luscious photos.

    So this ice cream is crazy good! I love the coconut flavor with two of my favorite smoothie ingredients (strawberry and banana). Thanks so much for linking up to Raw Foods Thursdays. I’ll be highlighting your recipe at tomorrow’s event! Thank you for sharing with us!

    You have a Moomin cup for your ice cream! Sorry that got me really excited. I love Moomins!

    Thanks for the recipe as well – I can’t eat dairy all of a sudden and the thing I miss the most is ice cream.

      ha!! didn’t think anyone else knew what a Moomin is. I am originally from Finland. My mom brought me the cute cups back from Finland for my kids. How do you know what a Moomin is?

    I’ve made plain banana ice cream like this before, but I love the strawberry coconut twist you’ve added. We’re in the middle of strawberry season over here, so I have to try it!

  • 💗 We choose to live below our means.

💗 We don’t buy things we can’t pay for. We don’t carry debt to maintain a lifestyle. We don’t feel the need to buy the latest brand name or keep up with what everyone else has.

💗 We try to be intentional with our spending, asking ourselves whether something actually adds value to our lives — or whether we’ve simply been conditioned to want it.
