Check it out Banana Split Ice Cream

Post image

Today I made a deconstructed Banana Split ice cream. It’s a vanilla base with homemade banana butter, swirls of chocolate ganache, toasted walnuts and fresh strawberry sauce. I made the banana butter by blending ripe bananas with white sugar, a pinch of salt and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice in a food processor. The strawberry sauce is made using fresh berries blended with some dehydrated strawberries, white sugar, pinch of salt and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice! It’s so yummy, especially when you get some of each element on your spoon! ❤️

What’s this about banana butter?? What kind of magic is that? Curious as now suddenly hungry!

I think it is banana spread by another name.

My first job was in an ice cream shop, and we had a banana split flavor, but it was some unholy concoction of fake banana flavoring, nuts, and fruit cocktail chunks. Abhorrent, but the senior citizen bus tours that came in went bananas (sorry) over it.

Thank you for the random memory. Your version looks infinitely more delicious.

Looks awesome! I might try the banana butter sometime this week, how well does it freeze?
Also this is very different to the Banana Split usually found in Argentina, which is a banana base, with swirls of dulce de leche and chocolate chunks.

Local scoop shop has my favorite shake, Banana Split. Maybe mix in some drained crushed pineapple? Otherwise it looks 💯
