If you feel iffy about the ingredients found in store-bought ice cream, you can make this matcha ice cream at home with only three ingredients.
Created by Beth of Tasty Yummies and featured on the Free People blog, the recipe for 3 Ingredient Banana Matcha Tea Ice Cream is also perfect for people who have a limited diet. This is a refreshing frozen treat to cool down with this summer, especially if you adhere to a vegan or paleo lifestyle.
To recreate this matcha ice cream at home, you will need frozen bananas, full fat coconut milk or another non-dairy milk and unsweetened cooking grade matcha powder. If you prefer yours a little sweeter, you can also add maple syrup, honey or another sweetener. Dried nuts or fruit, dark or white chocolate chips or even raw cacao nibs also take the dish to new (and delicious) heights.
