Banana Split Ice Cream Recipe
Description
The Banana Split Ice Cream Recipe starts by mashing ripe bananas and sugar, then whisking in heavy cream, whole milk, and vanilla extract to create a sweet, creamy custard base. Chopped fresh pineapple, pitted cherries, peanuts, and milk chocolate pieces are folded in for added taste and texture. The mixture is chilled before being placed in an ice cream maker where it is churned until smooth and frozen to a soft-serve consistency. It can be served immediately or stored in the freezer for later. The recipe notes practical tips about using a countertop ice cream maker, including pre-freezing the canister and adding the mixture in batches to avoid overflow.
Ingredients
- 3 banana yellow and brown peel, medium ripe
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup milk whole
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 cup pineapple coarsely chopped into small pieces, fresh
- 1/2 cup Cherry pitted and coarsely chopped, fresh
- 1/4 cup peanut chopped
- 1 milk chocolate coarsely chopped into small pieces, brand: Hershey
Instructions
- Mash the bananas and sugar together, then stir in the cream, milk, and vanilla. Whisk the mixture well for a minute or two.
- Stir in the pineapple, cherries, nuts and chocolate, and then place the mixture in the freezer for at least two hours.
- Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and follow the manufacturer's instructions for churning.
- Serve immediately or store in the freezer.
Notes
- Mix ingredients in a large pitcher for easier pouring into the ice cream maker's frozen canister.
- Pre-freeze the ice cream maker canister thoroughly before churning for best results.
- Fill the canister in two batches due to volume increase during churning to prevent overflow.
- Store churned ice cream in a freezer-safe container for later use.
