BANANA ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Prep your workstation: Create an ice bath by placing a moderate amount of ice and water in a large bowl. Set an empty, medium bowl in the larger one on top of the ice. Pour the heavy cream into the medium bowl and set a strainer on top. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks until well combined.
• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, stir together the milk, sugar, and salt until small bubbles form along the edges and the sugar has dissolved. Do not let boil.
• Gradually pour some of the milk into the bowl with the egg yolks, whisking constantly as you pour (I like to use a ladle for this). Once you've poured in some of the milk, return the saucepan to the stove over low heat. Slowly pour the yolks into the saucepan, stirring constantly. This process is called tempering and will keep the eggs from scrambling.
• Continue cooking the egg-milk mixture (also called custard) over low heat, stirring constantly and scraping the bottom of the saucepan with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, until the custard thickens enough to coat the back of the spatula. Strain the custard into the bowl with the heavy cream.
• Place half of the custard into a blender or food processor with the bananas. Puree until smooth, then pour it back into the bowl with the rest of the custard. Stir in the vanilla extract and rum. Cover, pressing a piece of plastic wrap against the surface, then chill thoroughly in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or, if time allows, overnight.
• Freeze the ice cream in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions, adding the chocolate during the last 5 minutes of churning. Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze 3 hours or overnight. Let stand at room temperature 10 minutes before serving.

EASY BANANA ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Combine frozen bananas and 1/4 cup skim milk in a blender; blend for 30 seconds. Add remaining 1/4 cup milk and blend on high speed until smooth, about 30 seconds more.

EASY BANANA ICE CREAM (TIPS + 10 FLAVORS!)

Steps:

• Be sure to start with ripe and spotty bananas. Peel and slice into 1/2-inch slices for easier blending (large chunks tax the motor). Then add to a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze until firm (3-4 hours or overnight).
• Add sliced frozen bananas to a food processor fitted with an "S" blade. Then blend for 4-5 minutes or until completely smooth, fluffy, and blended. You'll need to stop occasionally to stir and scrape the sides. You'll be left with a soft serve texture. See "FREEZING" below for freezing tips.
• Add sliced frozen bananas to a high-speed blender, our most recommended model being the Vitamix 5200 for ultimate control and its powerful motor. (The Kitchenaid KSB8270FP Pro Line Series works well, too.) Turn the Vitamix dial to its lowest setting and ensure the switch is flipped to "Variable" NOT "High" to start with. It's too much to jump the motor from 0-100 that fast.
• Once it's started blending, quickly switch from "Variable" to "High" speed and use the tamper to press down and stir/agitate the bananas, which should turn into soft-serve texture banana ice cream quite quickly. If the motor seems to be struggling, stop and pause momentarily. Be sure to switch back to low speed / "Variable," then switch to "High" speed every time to protect the motor.
• Adding flavor to your nice cream is easy! For every flavor besides strawberry, berry, or Salted Caramel, simply add the recommended amounts of each ingredient to your ice cream at this time and blend until creamy and smooth, scraping down the sides as needed. If making strawberry or berry, we recommend adding them at the beginning with the unblended bananas for best texture.
• At this point you have soft-serve texture banana ice cream. To get more of a scoopable ice cream texture, simply spread into a Tupperware or parchment-lined loaf pan and freeze for 2-3 hours. Then scoop with an ice cream scoop! If too firm, let thaw 15-30 minutes to soften.
• Best when fresh. See freezing instructions above. Frozen banana ice cream should keep for up to 1 month if well covered, though we find it's best when used within the first week.

BANANA ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Place bananas in freezer and freeze overnight. Remove bananas from freezer and allow to thaw for 45 minutes to 1 hour. Peel bananas and place in bowl of food processor along with the lemon juice. Process for 10 to 15 seconds. Add corn syrup and vanilla bean seeds and turn processor on. Slowly pour in the heavy cream. Process until smooth. Chill mixture in refrigerator until it reaches 40 degrees. Transfer mixture to an ice cream maker and process according to manufacturer's instructions. Place mixture in an airtight container and freeze for 3 to 6 hours before serving.

BANANA CREAM PUFFS DESSERT RECIPE - CHRIS FORD

Steps:

• Make the banana pastry cream: In a large bowl, combine the egg yolks and cornstarch. In a medium saucepan set over high heat, combine the milk, sugar, banana and vanilla and bring to a boil. Remove the pan from the heat. While whisking constantly, slowly pour the milk mixture into the yolk-cornstarch mixture. Return the mixture to the saucepan and set over high heat. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil, whisking constantly, for 1 minute. Immediately pass the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve, place in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Place in the refrigerator and chill until the mixture is cold and thick, at least 3 hours. Run the chilled banana pastry cream mixture through a food processor or use a whisk to loosen the mixture.
• In a large bowl or using a standing mixer, whisk together the heavy cream and confectioners' sugar until medium-stiff peaks form. Gently fold the banana pastry cream into the whipped cream, cover with plastic wrap and chill.
• Make the pâte à choux: Preheat the oven to 375°. In a medium saucepan set over high heat, combine the milk, water, butter, sugar and salt and bring to a rolling boil. Whisk in the cake flour and stir vigorously to make sure no clumps of flour form. Whisk constantly until the dough forms a ball, pulls away from the sides of the pan and begins to dry out, 2 to 3 minutes 4. Scrape the hot dough directly into the bowl of a standing mixer and paddle on medium speed for 1 minute. Slowly add the eggs, one at a time, making sure each egg is fully combined before adding the next. Once all the eggs have been added, continue to mix for 2 minutes, until the dough is smooth. Transfer the dough to a pastry bag fitted with a large round pastry tip.
• On a sheet pan lined with parchment paper, pipe the dough into 1-inch rounds. Place in the oven and bake for 5 minutes. Turn the heat down to 325° and bake until the pâte à choux is puffed, lightly browned and very light, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool to room temperature.
• Fit another pastry bag with a medium round pastry tip and fill with the chilled banana pastry cream. Make a tiny hole at the bottom of each puff with the pastry tip and fill each completely with banana pastry cream, being careful not to overfill. Dust with confectioners' sugar and serve immediately.

QUICK BANANA ICE CREAM SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4 and line two large baking sheets with baking parchment. Put the peanut butter, sugar, ¼ tsp fine table salt and chocolate chunks in a bowl and mix well with a wooden spoon. Crack in the egg and mix again until the mixture clumps together and forms a dough.
• Break off chunks of dough (about the size of a cherry tomato) and arrange them, spaced apart, on the sheets. Press the cookies down with the back of a fork to squash them a little. (The cookies can be frozen for up to two months - to cook from frozen, add an extra 1-2 mins to the cooking time.) Bake for about 12 mins until golden around the edges and paler in the centre. Leave to cool on the trays for 5 mins.
• Meanwhile, put the bananas, cream and vanilla in a food processor and blend until they make a thick ice cream. Scoop into balls with an ice cream scoop, and sandwich between the cookies. Serve immediately.
