Banana Pudding Ice Cream Recipes

BANANA PUDDING ICE CREAM

Steps:

• In a saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the half and half, brown sugar, white sugar, and salt. Stir until sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes.
• Take saucepan off heat. Place eggs in a medium bowl. While whisking, gradually (to not curdle the eggs) add about half the sugar mixture to the eggs.
• Pour egg mixture into saucepan with the half and half that remained in the saucepan.
• Stir in cream.
• Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon. About 5 to 10 minutes.
• Take saucepan off heat and stir in vanilla extract. Pour mixture through a fine-meshed sieve into a bowl and let cool to room temperature.
• Once cooled, stir in mashed banana and pour into an ice cream maker. Use manufacturer's directions to freeze. Add Nilla wafers about 5 minutes before end of freezing time.
• If ice cream is too soft for your liking at this point, place in freezer for about 1 hour.

BANANA PUDDING ICE CREAM

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix Cool-Whip, condensed milk, pudding, and about 1/4 gallon milk. Add chopped bananas and crushed Nilla Wafers.
• Pour mixture into ice cream machine. Add milk to the fill line in the ice cream maker.
• Stir mixture and begin freezing process as directed by manufacturer's procedure.
• Note: Can substitute different flavors of pudding mix, cookies, and/or fruit for different flavors. Vanilla pudding and crushed Oreos (do not remove cookie filling before crushing) with no fruit makes a great Cookies N Cream-like ice cream.

BANANA PUDDING ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Combine the cream and half and half in a medium saucepan, and cook over medium heat until warm (do not boil). Meanwhile, beat the egg yolks with the sugar and vanilla.
• Once the cream mixture is warm, pour 1/2 cup of it into the egg mixture. Stir egg and cream mixture back into the cream and half and half in the pan. Stir in banana slices and heat on medium low for five minutes, or until it becomes slightly thick (once again, do not boil!). Stir in the nutmeg and remove from heat. Allow to rest for 45 minutes. During this time, the bananas will be releasing all their incredible flavor into the cream.
• Remove the banana slices (a colander works well for this), and chill cream overnight, or for at least four hours.
• Freeze according to your ice cream maker's instructions. Stir in the Nilla Wafers, and garnish with sliced banana, if desired.
