This delicious icecream has exactly one ingredient: frozen bananas. No milk, gluten, or added sugar! So maybe it's not exactly icecream, but it does have the same creamy texture. If you haven't tried it, then you'll be amazed. All you have to do is freeze some very ripe, peeled bananas. I typically just break them in half and put them in ziploc bags to freeze. Then you just blend up the frozen banana, and you'll have a naturally sweet, yummy treat. I actually use the
Yonanas Ice Cream Treat Maker
to make it, but I think that it will work fairly well in a blender or food processor too. One trick that I have found that makes this work a little bit better is to thaw the banana just a little bit before blending it. My kids are typically anxiously awaiting their treat, so I just pop my ziploc bag in the microwave for 20 seconds to soften up the bananas first. You can also add other frozen fruit and/or toppings to create new flavors. My kids like to add some frozen strawberries or maybe a little bit of chocolate syrup. Each frozen banana makes a small, child-size serving. When I made this for my kids last night, my 4 year-old daughter squealed with delight.
What's summertime without ice cream? Now that my family is both gluten and dairy free this suddenly became a bit more difficult. My kids love the SoDelicious brand Coconut frozen dessert varieties, but at $6+ a pint that can be a bit too pricey for a family of five. I decided to pull out the ice cream maker attachment from the bottom of the deep freezer in the garage and try to make my own. All of the recipes that I found online called for the full fat, canned coconut milk, and I didn't have any on hand so I thought that I'd give it a try with the lighter coconut milk that I already had in the refrigerator. The result was more of an ice milk type treat, but still delicious and satisfying without the extra fat. I simply 
mixed together 6 cups of Coconut Milk (such as Silk brand - not the full fat kind), 1/2 cup of sugar (This is a slightly sweet treat, but you can add more sugar if desired), and 2 tsp vanilla to make the ice cream mixture. Then froze the mixture in an ice cream machine and served immediately as a soft-serve treat. I have the KitchenAid Ice Cream Maker attachment that I use to make it, but a traditional ice cream maker should work fine as well.
