Makes dessert for 2

Ingredients:

• For "Ice Cream"
  • 2 overripe bananas which have been frozen ahead of time, peeled and chopped
  • 1/2 cup chopped pitted dates
  • Up to 1/4 cup of creamy coconut milk if needed
• For topping
  • Some toasted pine nuts and raisins
  • Home-made pluot (or any summer fruit) jam (I used this recipe, with a slight variation of spices)

Method:

• In a powerful blender or food procesor, add the banana and dates. Blend until smooth, adding a little bit of the coconut milk at a time, if needed
• Freeze for around 6 hours
• Scoop in to a serving cup, top with pine nuts, raisins and a spoonful of jam and serve
