Guilt-free, Dairy-free Thanksgiving Ice Cream

We can’t all handle milk products. For those who can't, they usually miss out on the deliciousness that is ice cream. But no worries! This holiday, try an “ice cream” recipe that doesn’t include cream but still incorporates the best spices and flavors of Thanksgiving. This recipe is soy-free, gluten-free and dairy-free.

Allow yourself a bit of extra time before beginning the bulk of this recipe. Peel the bananas and cut them into fourths before you freeze them, just to make the job easier. Freeze them for at least a day (more days is better). Pumpkin pie spice can be used instead of cinnamon and nutmeg, and a little ground ginger might do wonders. You can adjust the measurements to your taste.

Ingredients:

• 1 frozen banana (per person)
• 1 carrot
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 1/8 tsp nutmeg
• 1/2-1 tbsp almond butter (optional)
• Less than a splash of almond milk to help blend (optional)

Directions:
Put the frozen banana into a food processor or blender and blend until it reaches the consistency of ice cream. You may need to stop occasionally to scrape down the sides. Add the remaining ingredients and blend until smooth. Add more spices to taste. Sprinkle spices on top of “ice cream” to finish it off. Serve and enjoy!
