Sweet & Salty Banana Soft-Serve with Roasted Almonds

Place bananas in the freezer for at least 3 hours. (The bananas can be peeled and pre-sliced or simply just peeled before putting them into the freezer.) When you’re ready to make the ice cream, cut them into smaller pieces for easier blending.

In the meantime, prepare the topping. In a small saucepan, heat the oil over medium low for a minute or two. Add the chopped almonds and roast them for couple of minutes until they’re starting to turn brown and fragrant.

In a bowl, combine the roasted almonds with maple syrup and salt.

For the ice cream, in a food processor, pulse frozen banana slices, almond milk, vanilla, and maple syrup, scraping down the sides as necessary, until mixture is the texture of soft-serve ice cream.

Spoon into bowls and sprinkle with almond mixture.
