What Is Nice Cream?
Nice cream is a 100% fruit-based ice cream alternative made by blending frozen bananas into a smooth, creamy texture. It has the consistency of soft-serve ice cream but contains no added sugar, cream, or artificial ingredients.
This strawberry banana version adds fresh fruity flavor and a beautiful pink color.
🍓 Ingredients for Strawberry Banana Nice Cream
You only need a few simple ingredients:
• 2 cups frozen strawberries (fully frozen for best texture)
• 2 frozen bananas (peeled and sliced before freezing)
• 1/4 to 1/2 cup milk (dairy or plant-based such as almond, oat, or coconut milk)
🍨 How to Make Strawberry Banana Nice Cream
Step 1: Freeze the Fruit
Peel and slice the bananas, then freeze them along with the strawberries until completely solid (at least 4–6 hours or overnight).
Step 2: Blend the Ingredients
Add the frozen strawberries and bananas into a high-speed blender or food processor.
Start blending slowly to break the fruit down.
Step 3: Add Milk Gradually
Pour in milk a little at a time (start with 1/4 cup).
Blend until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy like soft-serve ice cream.
👉 Add more milk only if needed to help blending.
Step 4: Serve Immediately
Once smooth, serve immediately for a soft-serve texture.
For a firmer texture, freeze for 30–60 minutes before serving.
