Ingredients

Adjust servings4

3 large very ripe bananas, peeled, sliced, and frozen 4 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk, or more as needed 2 tablespoons dark cocoa powder (such as Hershey's® Special Dark) 1 teaspoon vanilla extract ¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon 1 pinch salt

02 / HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Blend Banana Mixture

Start by tossing your frozen bananas, almond milk, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt into a high-powered blender. Blend everything together until it’s smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides if needed. If the mixture feels too thick or crumbly, just add a little more almond milk to help it along. You can enjoy it right away as a soft-serve treat, or pop it into the freezer for an hour or two if you prefer a firmer sorbet. When it’s ready, scoop it out and dig in!

03 / EXTRA DETAILS

Good to know.

Cook's tip

- Use ripe bananas for the best natural sweetness and smooth texture.
- Freeze the mixture for at least 4 hours to achieve the ideal sorbet consistency.
- Stir the sorbet every 30 minutes during freezing to prevent ice crystals and keep it creamy.
