In the JNF Kitchen: Hagit's super-easy banana ice cream
| Photo: Anne Taillandier |
This #RecipeOfTheWeek, like last week's, comes from the kitchen of Hagit Lidror, a chef who specializes in healthy vegetarian cuisine and teaches cooking classes at her home in Israel's Western Galilee. She's a member of JNF partner organization Western Galilee Now, a consortium of small businesses in the region.
Here's how Hagit makes a healthy, one-ingredient ice cream. Have you made a JNF #RecipeOfTheWeek? Send a photo of your creation to [email protected] or tweet it to @JNFUSA with the hashtag #JNFfoodie. We might share it!
Ingredients
Ripe bananas (each banana makes 2 servings, about 1 cup)
Finely chopped pecans
Maple syrup
Directions
Note: for this recipe, you will need a food processor (this is your magic wand).
Freeze unpeeled bananas for at least a couple hours. Peel the bananas and chop them up any way you like. Puree them in a food processor -- this is where the magic happens, so you do not want to skimp on this step. Puree relentlessly -- do not waver -- until suddenly the consistency becomes a perfectly smooth, soft-serve ice cream texture. Transfer to an airtight container and freeze a couple hours until solid (you can eat the ice cream immediately, but it will be very soft).
Add a dash of maple syrup and sprinkle with the chopped pecans.
Other suggestions for toppings:
• Cocoa power and cocoa chunks
• Mint and parsley chiffon
• Mini-cubes of frozen mango
