Banana Blackberry Home-made No-churn Ice Cream
Never let your hubby watch MasterChef Australia with you. The man of few words has begun to give me feedback on what I serve on the table that too with Gary's and Matt's words - negative ones like this is overpowering that.. some elements missing... :-) LOL! Whatever, I am glad he enjoys the show with me and then we laugh out loud as he cannot come up with any more words! Like for today's recipe, Banana Blackberry Home-made No-churn Ice Cream I forgot to add chopped nuts that would have been an awesome option but missed it. some elements missing...
How many of you have seen that One Ingredient Ice Cream video? A week before I made this, I chopped a couple of bananas and packed into the freezer to make that which was showing up too many times on my feed. Then I forgot. Totally. That is how my freezer is.. what goes in it is forgotten! A box of blackberries that I kept saving to make muffins was not destined for it either. When it came down to the choice of muffins or smoothies, he chose smoothies, but I went a level up and decided to make the ice cream!
While sorting the blackberries to grind, I remembered the frozen banana!! Sheesh, should have made that instead! I knew if not today, I am going to forget them again. So off went the frozen banana chunks along with the blackberry in the grinder! Now it takes a wee bit more time as its frozen bananas. When I tasted the mixture, it was YUM but it left a slightly bitter after taste. But that is normal and don't need to increase sugar or condensed milk, just splash some cardamom powder and you are good to go.
Yields: 4 to 6 scoops? I don't remember!
Now, this can be made with any berries combination as banana goes with.. all? everything? And if not a fan of cardamom (I hate you) then add some cinnamon or I think even mint goes well... anything that can layer flavours to get past that light after-taste. Or if you are aware of any other techniques please do drop in your ideas in the comment box! :-D
Have a fantastic WEEKEND!

Banana Blackberry Home-made Ice-cream
INGREDIENTS:
16 blackberries
2 frozen banana
1/2 can condensed milk
3/4 cup whipping cream, whipped
a dash vanilla essence
1/2 teaspoon cardamom powder
METHOD
- Add the frozen bananas into a food processor or grinder and grind until smooth and no lumps. Tip in the blackberries halfway through the grinding process.
- Transfer the content into a deep bowl and add in the condensed milk and mix well
- Fold in the whipped cream continuously and gently until everything is incorporated
- Pour them into a freezer box and freeze overnight or up to 6 hours
- Scoop and serve the Banana Blackberry Home-made No-churn Ice Cream with some walnuts - clearly missing that element in my servings!
Now, this can be made with any berries combination as banana goes with.. all? everything? And if not a fan of cardamom (I hate you) then add some cinnamon or I think even mint goes well... anything that can layer flavours to get past that light after-taste.
