Small Forest

 

Last weekend, on our way through the produce section, we stumbled upon two shopping carts full of freckled bananas with a sign saying, “FREE! Take some!” So, we did. The first nine became loaves of banana bread. We polished off a couple at breakfast the next day. A few were strawberry/orange/banana smoothies. The rest could be:

 

Banana Ice Cream

 

3/4 cup milk

1/2 cup sugar

1/4 teaspoon fresh ground nutmeg

3 to 4 VERY ripe bananas

2 cups heavy whipping cream

1 tsp vanilla

 

Whisk together milk, sugar, and nutmeg until sugar dissolves. Thoroughly mash bananas, then stir into milk mixture. Chill banana/milk mixture at least an hour. Add whipping cream and vanilla; stir well. Pour mixture into ice cream maker and churn about half an hour. Ice cream may be eaten immediately, or cured in freezer at least half an hour.
