Got a sweet tooth? Try my Frozen Banana Custard made with just 1 ingredient!
Yep, this gold star recipe is comprised of, wait for it, frozen bananas. That’s it!
To make sure I’m always prepared to whip some up, I buy a bunch of bananas, cut them in half and freeze them. When I want to make custard, I take out two halves, slice them up, pop them in my food processor, and start blending.
First your banana will look like dippin’ dots.
Then it will start to clump together.
Then, with angels singing in the background, it will turn into frozen banana custard!
Better than any custard you’ve ever had! No sugar, no fat, no nothin’. Just bananas. That’s it!
You’d be surprised how much custard one banana makes, too. Thick, luscious and decadent. Perfect for a guilt-free dessert.

This looks so good! If you don’t have a food processor but only a blender, could you make the custard still?

Genius! It’s so delicious.
I tried adding a packet of diet hot chocolate mix to the custard and it turned out great!

Oooh The Banana custard was AMAZING! So good with a little bit of cinnamon sprinkled on top. I bet it would be good with a dash of nutmeg too! Thanks for the recipe!

Hey Kristin,
Question about your custard, which looks delish by the way. Pure banana flavor is not really my fave. Have you ever tried adding a little bit of another fruit, perhaps a few berries? I’m curious if it would wreck the creamy texture the bananas give you.

It’s a fine idea for a show but she is not the right person to be hosting it.

That chicken noodle soup looks so good and comforting!

I cannot wait to try that banana custard!!!! I am dumbfounded that just frozen bananas can give you that texture! The bad part is that I just threw out all of my frozen bananas cause we’re moving this weekend and I was trying to clean out the freezer, now I have a whole new reason to collect frozen bananas… they’re not just for banana bread any more!
