Chocolate Banana Freezer Pie Clean Eating Food

CHOCOLATE-BANANA ICE CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Pulse the cookies, coconut and butter in a food processor until finely ground. Press into the bottom and halfway up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan. Slice the bananas and arrange in a layer over the crust. Freeze until the crust sets, about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, let the vanilla ice cream soften at room temperature.
• Spread the vanilla ice cream evenly over the banana layer. Freeze until firm, about 2 hours. Let the chocolate ice cream soften at room temperature, then spread over the vanilla layer. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, at least 2 hours.
• Remove the pie from the freezer 20 minutes before serving. Beat the cream and confectioners' sugar with a mixer until soft peaks form, then spread over the pie. Top with toasted coconut, if desired.

CHOCOLATE BANANA FREEZER PIE (CLEAN EATING)

Steps:

• Combine bananas, cocoa, coconut milk and vanilla in the jar of the blender. Blend until very smooth (like thin cake batter), stopping to scrape down the sides of jar and star mixture 2 or 3 times to ensure all banana is pureed.
• Pour banana puree into baked pie crust. Sprinkle peanuts and chocolate across surface of pie. Cover very tightly with plastic wrap and freeze for a minimum of 4 hours, or overnight.
• To serve, remove plastic wrap and set at room temperature for about 30 minutes (longer if pie was frozen for more than 4 hours), until pie is just soft enough to yield to the cut of a knife.
