Once you see how quick, easy, and delicious this tasty homemade treat is, you’ll want to keep your freezer stocked with frozen, sliced bananas and berries so you can whip this treat up anytime the mood hits!
Tip: Bananas and fruit should be frozen the day before making the ice cream. For best results, prepare ice cream and allow it to sit in the freezer for at least 12 hours before making the ice cream sandwiches. Feel free to substitute walnuts, pecans, or pistachios instead of almonds if desired.
