Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 4 medium bananas (about 450 grams), sliced
- 4 ounces (113 grams) vegan cream cheese
Liquid Ingredient:
- 3 tablespoons extra concentrated coffee or coffee extract
Garnish:
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder, for sifting on top
Instructions
- Meticulously prepare ripe bananas by removing the peel and slicing into uniform chunks, approximately one inch in diameter. Transfer these segments into a freezer-compatible container, ensuring they are not touching each other.
- Allow banana pieces to solidify completely in the freezer, which typically requires around 8-10 hours or overnight for optimal freezing.
- Remove frozen banana chunks and transfer directly into a robust food processor or high-performance blender equipped with sturdy blades.
- Incorporate vegan cream cheese and rich coffee extract into the frozen banana pieces, creating a potential base for the creamy dessert.
- Activate the blender and process the mixture, utilizing a tamping tool if necessary to encourage even blending and prevent potential clumping.
- Continue processing until the mixture transforms into a silky, luxurious consistency resembling soft-serve ice cream, pausing occasionally to scrape down the sides.
- Evaluate the flavor profile and incorporate additional sweetener if the mixture requires enhanced sweetness, blending thoroughly to distribute evenly.
- For immediate consumption, serve the nice cream promptly to maintain its luscious, soft-serve texture.
- Alternatively, transfer the nice cream into an airtight container and place in the freezer to develop a more structured, scoopable consistency.
- Immediately prior to serving, delicately dust the surface with cocoa powder using a fine-mesh sifter, creating an elegant tiramisu-inspired presentation.
Notes
- Freeze banana slices completely solid for at least 8 hours to create a creamy, smooth base that mimics traditional ice cream texture.
- Use a high-powered blender or food processor to transform frozen bananas into a silky, luxurious dessert with minimal effort.
- Vegan cream cheese adds richness and depth, making this nice cream an indulgent yet healthier alternative to traditional tiramisu.
- Adjust sweetness by blending in your favorite plant-based sweetener to personalize the dessert’s flavor profile.
- Sifting cocoa powder just before serving creates an authentic tiramisu experience and adds a beautiful visual finish.
- Store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one week, allowing you to enjoy this guilt-free treat whenever a craving strikes.
