Raw Banana Ice Cream

[renni1985]

I cut it into pieces and add a bit of plant-milk and then cocoa. 'God' didnt make it - I did!

[betterbblack]

I just froze bananas overnight and blended them in a mini food processor..a bit of work but SO worth it. The end result was fabulous, served with vegan chocolate chip cookies! :DD

[MrFennmeista]

Instant Ice-cream. :P~

[TheKitteyKat]

What is this machein called exactly? Where can I buy one??

[juletide96]

Where did you get your champion juicer?

[ElizaGilhuly]

Yes! I am going to try this in my Green Power Juicer. I hope it comes out the same!

[bigbull110]

@annsaysno the amount of sugar in a banana does not change while it ripes, the calories is exactly the same. air cannot inject sugar into the banana. as bananas ripen, the complex carbohydrates in the banana breaks down into simple ones, and thus your taste buds get a bigger kick.

[304fannin]

I saw this chef on the Dog Whisperer. 

[DesiraeLovesPurplexD]

that looks so good xP

[theme123able]

cool..nice..

[brownvagabond]

Actually unripen bananas have a higher starch content. So if you like all that starch for it.

[Denmarkpwns]

stupid lady.. green bananas are healthier..

[smileyflyz]

@Denmarkpwns ust admitt, i have em at school there so dry and just i dunoo UGH yuck lol

[Denmarkpwns]

@smileyflyz yeah, they taste worse :p but they arent unhealty as she day :)

[HotVoodooWitch]

@Denmarkpwns You're the stupid one. Ripe bananas are easier to digest, hence more healthful. Try wrapping your brain around that.

[VirtualSamadhi]

Banana + Maple + mashed Blueberry

[simians12]

OH MY GOD ! .. I WANT THAT

[andrewsacht]

how about peyote in that thing?

[markpianoman]

That banana would be to ripe for me to eat alone. However, I let bananas get very ripe to freeze for slushies!

[thenili]

Hi, BethuneGal -- it's a Champion Juicer.

[BethuneGal]

is that a juicer?? what is that?

[nulifeagain]

what is that machine?

[1HotRawChef]

The comment that schools should use this is a PERFECT statement! Think how healthy the kids would be if they ate banana ice cream for breakfast, that was just a banana or combination of RAW fruits. Thank you!

[Username2046]

WHAT MACHINE IS THAT???

[janetwv]

champion juicer



[jgq85]

Is that a Juicer? and what model?

[dooom560]

The earth made this ice cream dum dum.

[vichudoll]

"GOD MADE THIS ICE CREAM -- ONE INGREDIENT: BANANA."

I laughed forever at that.

[MeatyCockandBallz]

A couple of frozen bananas, a handful of roasted peanuts, a tbs. of coconut milk, and a tsp. of honey. Enjoy!

[roqsanda]

Frozen Ripe Bananas + Frozen Coconut -

Here is what I came up with ~ You have to have some Coconut Cream (comes in Boxes here in the Bronx which is a borough where Latinos live) & has no Sugar added.

So Frozen Coconut Cream + Frozen Ripe Bananas like this & if you do not possess a Champion Juicer NO SWEAT use a $40 Food Processor (with Large blades, not the same thing as a Blender) ~

Just throw in cut up

-Frozen Banana &

-Also cut up chunks of Frozen Coconut Cream

ET Voila~

Compliments??

[gongfumaster]

GOD MADE THIS ICECREAM

[evolutiongirl321]

@gongfumaster Huh????? What does a fictional character in some mythological story have to do with ice cream?

[SMILEnatLUVSyou]

If I don't have that juicer machine, what can I use to make the ice cream that "soft serve" consistency? Maybe put it in a blender and pulse it a few times? Or let it sit out for a couple minutes and use a potato masher? I don't know.. I hope I don't sound stupid lol. Just trying to think of alternatives instead of going out and buying a juicer.

Any ideas?

[shwoogy21]

Blender would work if you add a bit of almond milk but it might be more of a shake consistency. Food copper/processor would be better i think to get it to a soft serve....

[gennatania]

I'd love to enjoy raw ice cream but I'm skeptical to whether or not frozen foods really qualify as raw. I thought that if food is heated and ends up being dead, wouldn't freezing food kill vital nutrients as well? Someone plz help me out on the science of that. Thanks for any responses.

[ncfwhitetigress]

frozen foods are much more raw than cooked foods. the vast majority of nutrients are preserved but there may be a few exceptions.

[Cephlica]

Human sperm is frozen and it still makes a human being. I would say frozen fruit still holds its nutrients. Cooking something destroys it because heat is known to break things down, whereas cooling or freezing something preserves it in its natural state.

[PrincessFancyBitch]

@Cephlica I hope no one tries to make ice cream out of that... ew... lol

[MeatyCockandBallz]

LMAO

[goanyways]

nope. Heat kills things where as cold will preserve or even restore in some cases. like with skin ceansing for example, hot water removes the natural oils from our skin where as cold water closes our pores. SO, nope cold doesnt damage it, ofcourse overtime the food will get dated and older but freezing slowls down the process for sure. i'm eating raw and put my grapes and berries in the freezer. they rock

[time2standandrise]

I have a Champion juicer and tried this out. It's awesome! I'm going to add some more frozen fruit into the mix like they said and see how it turns out.

[eeenileuqcaj]

You don't actually need any fancy equipment to do this.

Simply chop bananas and put them in a ziplock bag. Place in the freezer.

Once they're frozen well, just smash them in the bag itself using your hands. A blender would help though it's not necessary.

Serve immediately.

I've been making this so many times and it's awesome :D

[oldsoulyoungbody]

can you use a food processesor?

[Kye35]

Really amazing I was thinking wheres the cream and sugar etc, but just bandannas wow I've really learnt something here, thanks great video I'll be making this.

[soccergirl99rocks]

i need that machine hahah thats awsome

[Xavier350]

sigh...cant make that surprise surprise dont have $2000 to spend on a juicer or other machines.

[quasim0do]

I have an old meat grinder that I bought for $20, and it works pretty well for these kind of things. It won't give you the perfect result, but good enough.

[katies55555]

If you cut the bananas before you freeze them you can just use a blender =P

[ferretsrcrunchy]

@katies55555 It works, but my god is it noisy, and it takes so long. An auger juicer is a fairly minor investment considering Omega offers a 15 year warranty with it.

[Pestilence86]

@katies55555 :) exactly, add frozen strawberries and some juice and you got yourself a nice smoothy

[leahcimrac]

@katies55555 yeah and put bates and coconut water on top. Lovely

[excaesar83]

"GOD MADE THIS ICE CREAM" DAMN

[redhedream]

How did you add the cacoa? Sounds good, have you ever added agave?

The machine is a Champion Juicer.

[MamaQuita0109]

Well food grinder/food mill

[MamaQuita0109]

The machine is a food grinder. Kitchen aid makes them. They're used for meat, veggies, bread, etc

[isaachaze1]

uh, actually it looks like a champion juicer to me (i have one)...

[MamaQuita0109]

well try it and let me know how it works out--or have you tried it already?

[isaachaze1]

i havent tried this with it, but i used it for years to make juice. it works very well. i use a vitamix now for stuff. the champion is a good juicer though

[foxgirl100]

Pure genius. What machine is that? I'm in UK . I want one!

[rejoiceforlife]

What a wonderful ice cream. The only thing is, I do not know the name of the machine that you used to make the banana ice cream. Without the name of the machine, I just enjoy looking at you make your wonderful fruit ice cream. My suggestion is for you to say what machine you used to make the ice cream, because some of us do not know and are just learning.

[SoxStar89]

ahhh dese american hoes da way dey talk is so annoying lol i wna fite dem

[arecchia123]

its not how it LOOKS folks it's how it FEELS....i bet lady...

[allicando1]

Could you puree the banana and then refreeze it? ie. so you can make a big batch of it and then just serve when needed?

[Vegannibal]

I've made this with strawberries, banana and cacao. ZOMG!! I made it when I went to a family gathering because I'm vegan so I don't eat their food... everyone wanted MY desert! lol.

[sugarcane91]

Is that a meat grinder??

[MissyBelleSYD]

lol....it's a vegetable juicer

[sugarcane91]

Oh, my bad! Thanks for replying!!!

[ryanjames2007]

I think it is called the 'champion Juicer' I'd skip the juicer and get a vita-mix. Juicers are a pain to clean

[sugarcane91]

That is SO fuckin' awesome!!! I am SO going raw veg!!!!

[Vegannibal]

awesome, sugarcane!!!

[shannonstudio]

I've eaten this and it is as CREAMY as ICE CREAM. It's delicious, frikkin' delicious and amazing.

[Bmage28]

Oh come on.. do you people even know what ice cream is? If it just contains a fruit, it cannot be an ice cream as it has no milk fat.

This is nothing more than a frozen banana puree.

[shannonstudio]

WRONG, you are so wrong. This tastes just like ICE CREAM. Without the calories and fat, la la la la la la la.

[Bmage28]

Doesn't change the fact that it isn't ice cream. It is a FROZEN BANANA PUREE!

[lilbeatch]

oh shoosh! lol i think we all realise it isnt technically ice cream but its like it and its healthy so who cares?

[FlamingoStripper]

2 girls 1 cup of banana ice cream.

[goodtimefunnygurl]

*GIGGLE*~2 girls 1 cup of banana ice cream! crack my ass up!

[Natashahahahaha]

ehm, why the f*** was this added to my faves?

[Mafiadaughter]

lol is she using a mincer?

[kdreama]

yes this is the best!!!!

[fashmonk23]

what kind of machine is that she's using?

[pairtrader]

Champion Juicer (with homogenizing attachment in the place of the screen)

[Mokurentate]

It looks expensive. *o* Is it?

[pairtrader]

$200-$300 new. Probably $100-$200 used. I bought mine on eBay.

[blu3shock]

couldnt you just use a blender?

[BaxHour]

I'm going to try tonight. I'll post a video ;)

[angelgregzion]

Yummy! I always freeze my bananas. Good tip, I need to peel it first. haha..
