Vegan Pomegranate Nice Cream
Description
Vegan Pomegranate Nice Cream is a frozen dessert made primarily from ripe bananas that have been chopped, frozen, and blended with pomegranate juice and coconut milk to achieve a thick, creamy consistency. The use of pomegranate juice introduces a bright, slightly tart flavor that contrasts nicely with the natural sweetness of the bananas. Blending the frozen bananas with liquid ingredients creates the ice cream-like texture without any dairy or added sugars.
The method involves first freezing the bananas, then combining them with pomegranate juice and milk for blending. After blending until smooth, the mixture is set in a loaf pan and frozen to firm up further before serving. Letting the nice cream rest briefly at room temperature before scooping helps soften it for easier serving.
Ingredients
- 8 oz. pomegranate juice POM Wonderful brand, 100% juice
- 8-10 medium banana chop then freeze
- 2-3 Tbsp. coconut milk or milk of choice
Instructions
- Peel and chop bananas. Freeze in a freezer friendly baggie.
- Once frozen, place bananas in a powerful blender. Pour in 8 oz. 100% Pomegranate Juice and milk of choice. Blend until thick and creamy.
- Pour banana/pomegranate mixture into a standard loaf pan (like a banana bread pan). Cover with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- When ready to enjoy, remove from freezer and let it sit for ~10 minutes before scooping.
Notes
- Adjust the amount of coconut milk or other milk to achieve your preferred creamy texture.
- Freeze bananas in bags suitable for freezer storage to keep them fresh and accessible.
- Allow the nice cream to sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes before scooping for easier portioning.
