Tasty Tuesday


It's getting to be that time of year again.  Get ready for PUMPKIN everything!  I feel like you either love it or you hate it, but there are some fun and healthy recipes that can be made from pumpkin.  This week we are going to make a little summer treat with a fall twist. 

two ingredient pumpkin ice cream

Ingredients: 
  • 4 large or 6 small very ripe bananas, frozen
  • 1/2 cup fresh or canned pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling!)
  • Optional:  raw honey, pure maple syrup, cinnamon, or chocolate chips
Directions:

  1. Blend the frozen bananas and pumpkin together in a high speed blender or food processor until creamy.  The bananas must be pre-frozen even if you are going to freeze the ice cream after blending.  Taste and add any optional sweetener like honey or maple syrup, if desired.  This would also be the time to add any cinnamon or chocolate chips if you like!
  2. Serve immediately for soft serve texture or freeze for at least 4 hours for a firmer ice cream.  If ice cream is in the freezer for a while, let it soften for about 5 minutes at room temperature before serving.
