"If I had to name the most amazing recipe I've ever tried I'd have to say it's this 1 ingredient ice cream. You need to try it yourself to see how much like real ice cream this is! You can add a second fruit with the same fantastic results as long as at least half the mixture is banana. This recipe is all over the web with mostly rave reviews. Use just ripe or over ripe bananas depending on how much banana flavour you want. The over ripe bananas have a more intense banana flavour. The prep time does not include the time to freeze the bananas"

Step by Step Method
Step 1
Freeze bananas on a wax paper or parchment paper lined tray until until solid (2 hours or overnight)
Step 2
Add to food processor (not a blender - the blade isn't big enough) and blend until creamy. Be patient, they will first become grainy. You'll need to scrape them down a few times and continue blending until they're creamy. It should take about 3 to 5 minutes.
Step 3
If you choose to add a flavouring, add with the bananas.
Step 4
Top with maple syrup, nuts, etc, if desired. (I like it plain)
