Goin' Bananas!

Last month, I saw my friend May's FB post of a cup-ful of homemade banana ice cream made of—guess what?!—bananas and nothing else!


I've been meaning to try it, but I wasn't sure if it would be any good. And so, seeing May's post, I quickly interrogated her. Below is an account of our Facebook conversation:
Me: Now I can try this! Been meaning to, I just dunno if it'll be any good.
May: Super easy! But instead of freezing the bananas for 2 hours like what it said in the original recipe, I froze it for 3 days.
Me: We-we-we-we-wait... freeze bananas first?
May: Yez! First step, slice bananas in small bits. Put in bowl. Freeze, freeze, freeze. Then, manigas sila! :P Here's where I got the recipe from.
Me: Yey! Thanks! I'll make some... and add nuts... and choco chips (I have a half-pound pack lying around somewhere...) and peanut butter and Nutella!
May: Yez! That's what I plan, too! Milo, coffee, oatmeal comes to mind. :D Now I don't have to throw away my brown bananas! :D
Me: I just tagged myself! That's how bad i want to make this!
May: Peechurs, pag nagawa mo na ha! :)
And so, here it is! My very own version, with chopped honey roasted peanuts!


It doesn't look quite as scoop-able like May's version, but that's just because I couldn't wait and took it out of the freezer too early. I had to taste it, ok? And you know what? It isn't bad at all! In fact, it's exactly how I imagined it to be!

Now I couldn't wait to make 'em with chocolate chips... and crushed graham crackers... and caramel...

And just so we're clear, may I just say that contrary to May's insinuations, I did not consume lots of Arce Dairy Ice cream just to be able to have enough canisters to hold my homemade ice cream.
