Matcha (Green Tea) Banana “Ice Cream”



If you’ve been on a food blog or Pinterest in the last year, you’ve probably seen the very popular one-ingredient ice cream made from frozen bananas. Also known as “nice cream,” I gave it a green twist by adding matcha and a little sweetened condensed milk.

First, let me say that it tastes NOTHING like ice cream. It tastes like a sweetened banana with matcha that has the consistency of ice cream. (Which is a good thing if you like bananas and matcha.) Fool me once with that mashed cauliflower that they swear tastes like mashed potatoes but tastes exactly like mashed cauliflower.

It was a lot of fun watching the frozen bananas turn into what looks like soft serve ice cream. You can eat it as soon as everything is well blended, but I refroze for an hour and a half to harden it up a bit.
