Banana Cream Pie Protein Ice Cream recipe is here to satisfy your sweet tooth without guilt.

Ingredients

• 2 large ripe bananas 🍌 (the riper, the sweeter!)

• 1 cup unsweetened almond milk 🥛

• 1 scoop vanilla protein powder 💪

• 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (for extra creaminess!) 🍦

• 1/4 cup crushed graham crackers (for that pie crust feel) 🍪

• 2 tablespoons honey (adjust based on desired sweetness) 🍯

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

• A pinch of sea salt 🌊

Directions

• Begin by peeling and slicing your bananas. Place them onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze until solid, about 2 hours.
• Once frozen, place the banana slices into a food processor or high-powered blender.
• Add the almond milk, vanilla protein powder, Greek yogurt, honey, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt.
• Blend until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy, resembling soft-serve ice cream.
• Fold in the crushed graham crackers with a spatula to add texture, mimicking the crust of a banana cream pie.
• Transfer the mixture into a freezer-safe container.
• For a firmer texture, freeze for an additional 4 hours or overnight.
• When ready to serve, let the protein ice cream sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly.
• Scoop into bowls or cones, and if desired, garnish with additional graham cracker crumbs or fresh banana slices.
• Enjoy your guilt-free indulgence!
