Salted Almond Ice Cream {no churn}

February 26, 2014 by Erica 54 Comments

Salted Banana Almond Ice Cream - Comfy Belly

Well, I asked for it and I got it. I have enough ice cream flavor ideas for at least the next two years.

Thank you to subscribers for all your banana ice cream ideas! Wow. While I ponder all the fabulous flavors offered up, I’ve landed on this one first. Thanks, Sherill! You win a Comfy Belly apron.

Just so you know, there were a lot of variations on the caramel theme that were calling my taste buds: salted banana caramel, banana and caramel, salted caramel banana, and, well you see where this is going. So it was a tough call. Sherill convinced me when she put salt and almond butter together.

Since my goal has been to lower the amount of sweetener I use in recipes, this one using just bananas, almond butter and salt allows me to capture that caramel flavor without all the sugar or additional sweetener. And it’s quite simple to make, with a short list of ingredients and no cooking, boiling or churning required!

The waffle cone recipe is here!

        Just put all the ingredients in the creami pint jar as per Erika’s recipe, I usually add an extra banana and a little more almond butter to fill. Sometimes I might add some water to fill in the gaps, but if you squash the banana’s down in the jar there is usually no need for the water. Freeze 24 hours and process using the ‘light ice cream’ setting. Comes out perfect!! Enjoy! I am still making this every night!! It goes well with a couple drops of peppermint essence too!

    I’ve never commented on a blog before, but this was so good I just had to chime in. Finally, an ice cream treat that doesn’t have much fat content, and tastes amazing!

        I was thinking of browning some in a skillet with butter for a topping, but toasted will work too. My only problem is I burn the at least half the time when I try to toast them.

          Yes, skillet on a low heat, or toast on a low heat (about 325 F).

    Does it taste like bananas or have a banana flavor. Unfortunately I don’t like the flavor.

    I have tried making plain banana ice cream before, and it was indeed really creamy and really good! Even my grandmother loved it! This recipe sounds great and I will be trying this one out. Thanks for the recipe!

    I just ordered the machine from Amazon. #42.99. I love the recipes and am definitely a banana fan. However… I’m in the US and gram measurements are a problem for me.

    Can you also add the US measurements like tablespoon or cup info? Even ounces would help.

    Thank you.

      US measurement is there (1/2 cup of almonds).

    Helpful Hint: running frozen bananas through your juicer makes instant soft serve!

    I know you already have a lot of recommendations but you should really try banana ice cream with some frozen dark cherries and lemon juice! Amazing!

    OMG this is fantistic!!! I made the chocolate version first and my daughter loved it. Then I tried this version with natural peanut butter since I didn’t have almond butter on hand. I can’t believe how creamy this turns out. Thanks!!!

    I just wanted to say that this sounded sooooooooo good that I couldn’t wait to freeze my bananas.
    I used my ripe bananas and made a pudding instead! So good. I froze my extra bananas so I could make the real thing, but thank you so much for this flavor combo–out of this world!
