Tips & FAQs
Can I use a different type of yogurt?
Yes, you can use any type of yogurt you prefer, but keep in mind that using a yogurt with fat content will add points to the recipe.
What if I don’t have frozen bananas?
Frozen bananas are key for the creaminess and natural sweetness of this recipe. However, if you don’t have them, you can use a fresh banana and add a few ice cubes to the blender for a thicker consistency, but the texture might not be as smooth.
Can I make this recipe without a blender?
A high-powered blender or food processor is recommended to achieve the smooth, creamy texture. If you don’t have one, you could try using a hand mixer, but the texture may be less consistent.
Is it okay to add other fruits?
Absolutely! You can mix in other frozen fruits like blueberries, raspberries, or mango for a different flavor profile. Just be mindful of the points if you’re following Weight Watchers.
Can I make this ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the ice cream in advance and freeze it. Just make sure to store it in an airtight container and allow it to thaw slightly before serving to achieve the best texture.
