Raspberry Nice Cream

Dessert, Pie, Cake, Ice Cream

Ingredients

6 ounces fresh raspberries

1/2 cup raw whole cashews soaked in warm water at room temperature for 2-12 hours, drained

2 bananas peeled, thickly sliced and frozen

Description

With a little blender and freezer magic, fresh raspberries, bananas and rich cashews make a sweet and flavorful "ice cream."

Directions

Purée raspberries and cashews in a blender or food processor until smooth, adding up to 1/4 cup water if needed to purée.

Add bananas and purée again, scraping down the sides often, until very smooth.

Transfer to a tightly sealed freezer-proof container and freeze until just solid, about 4 hours. (If you make further in advance, let soften at room temperature for 15 minutes before scooping.)
