Grilled Bananas & Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream

6/25/2009

I've been a bit crazy making ice cream since Christmas when I got a new ice cream maker.  This is the basic sweet cream base I use - you can add all sorts of stuff to this....blended fruit to make it fruit flavor, chocolate candies in all varieties, chocolate & cherries, use mint extract instead of vanilla & add small chunks of chocolate, the options are endless.

French Vanilla Ice Cream 
Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream & Dessert Cookbook

2 large eggs
¾ cup sugar
2 cups heavy whipping cream
1 cup 2% milk
2 TSP vanilla bean paste (you can use vanilla extract if you must)

Whisk eggs in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy, 1-2 minutes.  Whisk in the sugar, a little at a time, and then continue whisking until completely blended, about 1 minute.  Pour in the cream, milk and vanilla bean paste and whisk to bend.

Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and turn on….(follow the instructions for your ice cream maker)

Makes about 1 quart. 


Grilled Bananas
3 bananas
4 TBL (approximately) cinnamon/sugar mix
2 TBL (approximately) honey
Cut bananas lengthwise in their skins

Drizzle with honey, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar mixture.

Place bananas cut side down on grill.  Grill for about 2 minutes, flip over and cook until the skins start pulling away from the banana (about 5 minutes or so).  
Picture
Remove bananas from the grill, remove skins & erve immediately on your homemade (or store bought) vanilla ice cream!

Every person in our house LOVED this dessert!

Hey, I got the same ice cream maker for Christmas too! I have made the strawberry and the butter pecan. Both were yummy! This weekend I am going to try Cherry Garcia.
