Indulge in the creamy goodness of our Protein Ice Cream – a guilt-free treat that's not only delicious but also packs a protein punch. Made with frozen bananas and high-quality protein powder, this homemade ice cream offers a delightful alternative to traditional desserts. Whether you're cutting, bulking, or maintaining, this versatile recipe is a sweet and protein-rich addition to your menu.

Ingredients:

  • 2 ripe bananas, sliced and frozen
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of your choice)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • Toppings of your choice (berries, nuts, dark chocolate chips)

Instructions:

Freeze Bananas:

Slice the ripe bananas and place them in a sealed bag or container in the freezer until solid (at least 4 hours or overnight).

Prepare Ingredients:

Once bananas are frozen, take them out and let them thaw for about 5 minutes. This will make blending easier.

Blend the Base:

In a blender, combine the frozen banana slices, vanilla protein powder, almond milk, and vanilla extract if desired.

Blend Until Smooth:

Blend the ingredients until smooth and creamy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides to ensure everything is well mixed.

Serve or Freeze for Firmer Texture:

You can serve the ice cream immediately for a soft-serve consistency, or transfer it to a container and freeze for 1-2 hours for a firmer texture.

Add Toppings:

Before serving, add your favorite toppings such as fresh berries, nuts, or dark chocolate chips.

Enjoy:

Scoop into a bowl or cone and enjoy your guilt-free, protein-packed ice cream!
