Very nice. It becomes the consistency of soft serve. If you want a harder ice cream you'll have to, of course, freeze it. I used blueberries and banana and soy milk for the liquid. I feel like the soymilk is sweet enough that I don't need any added sweetner.

I've tried this with fresh strawberries and orange juice and ofcourse, a banana. It's really good.

I took ladypit’s tip and used soy milk (banana flavored) instead of water or juice. I also doubled the recipe and poured it into a graham cracker crust, then froze it. Wonderful!!!!

I've made this for years using just frozen banana chunks and vanilla soy milk. If you add just enough soy milk to get it to blend, it will be the consistency of soft serve ice cream. What a delicious way to eat fruit. Using only bananas we don't think it needs any additional sweetener. I'll try it with blueberries too. Great idea. This is a great recipe. Thank you for posting it.

It's pretty good. I found it today, but I have been making Vegan smoothies for awhile. I use plain soymilk instead of water and for sweetner I use Agave Nectar. My kids love it! They are not raised Vegan as I became Vegan many years after they came into the world.

Use Chocolate Soy and banana!! Yummmmm how about a handful of vegan cocoa chips. Another delicious one is mix by spoon chopped fruit and nuts into the banana-cream and re-freeze.

I added coconut milk, rasberries and blueberries. I really enjoyed it, but I had to freeze it some more after blending for a more solid, ice cream texture.

I used soy milk and some bananas and added a little bit of splenda. I had to stick it in the freezer, because its consistency (sp?) was like a smoothies. I wanted to thank the people who left comments because that helped me develop a better alternate recipe based on this one!

This is my second time making this. The first time I used milk and stevia. This time I used spring water and stevia. This is really more of a smoothie and I can't freeze it to see what it would be like, because I want it now! So good!!! Thank You Coco - Banana.
