Instructions
Creating Lemon-Blueberry Nice Cream is simple! Follow these straightforward steps to make your refreshing treat:
1. Prepare the Bananas: Peel and slice the ripe bananas into smaller pieces. Place them in a freezer-safe container and freeze until solid, about 2-3 hours.
2. Add Blueberries: If using fresh blueberries, rinse them well. If using frozen, there’s no need to thaw them.
3. Combine Ingredients: In a blender or food processor, add the frozen banana slices, blueberries, almond milk, lemon juice, and vanilla extract.
4. Blend: Blend on high until smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides as needed to ensure all ingredients are well mixed.
5. Adjust Consistency: If the mixture is too thick, add a bit more almond milk until desired creaminess is reached.
6. Transfer to a Container: Once fully blended, transfer the nice cream to a freezer-safe container. Smooth the top with a spatula.
7. Freeze: Place in the freezer for an additional 1-2 hours to firm up before serving.
8. Serve: When ready to enjoy, remove from the freezer and let sit for a few minutes to soften slightly for easier scooping.
These steps will help you create this delightful nice cream quickly and effortlessly.
