Italian banana dream ice cream recipe
4 bananas
2 tbsp lemon juice
4 egg yolks
½ can sweetened condensed milk
1 ½ cups sugar
1 ½ pt whipping cream
½ pt whole milk
½ tsp salt
2 tbsp vanilla
This is a dense very flavorful Italian ice cream. This one is so good it might create a new banana growing industry
in Italy.
The secret to this recipe is to use very ripe bananas. If they are slightly over-ripe, that is even better. Crush
bananas and add lemon juice and set aside. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together egg yolks, sweetened
condensed milk, sugar, whipping cream and whole milk. Then add salt and vanilla extract. Freeze this mix in an
ice cream freezer and when thick add the prepared bananas and continue to freeze. This is best when served
very cold. It has extraordinary flavor and "mouthfeel".
*If you are concerned about the possibility of Salmonella from uncooked eggs, substitute an equivalent amount of
Egg Beaters.
