This strawberry-chocolate nice cream (plant-based ice cream made with frozen bananas) is as pretty as it is delicious. Dark chocolate chunks make the healthy dessert taste especially decadent.
If you’re a fan of the strawberry-chocolate flavor combo, try our Strawberry-Chocolate Ice Cream Cupcakes.
By Nancy Macklin,
Ingredients
- 4 medium bananas, peeled, frozen at least 2 hours, and cut into 1-inch chunks (3 cups)
- 8 ounces frozen strawberries (2⅓ cups)
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup (optional)
- Dash sea salt
- 1 ounce unsweetened dark chocolate, chopped
- Fresh mint leaves (optional)
Instructions
- In a food processor combine frozen bananas, frozen strawberries, maple syrup (if using), and salt. Cover and process until smooth and creamy, stopping processor a few times to scrape down sides. Stir in chocolate.
- Serve immediately for soft-serve, or for a firmer ice cream, transfer mixture to an airtight freezer-safe container. Freeze 1 to 2 hours. If desired, garnish with mint leaves.

This was good, will definitely make again. Unfortunately it burned out the motor on my ancient Vitamix though. Oops.
8 oz strawberries…2 1/3 cups? Mistake?
If you weigh 8 ounce strawberries, it is around 2 1/3 cups
Looks delicious but I have a allergy to bananas….any alternative ingredient that would suffice? Thanks
