I love throwing healthy delicious vegan ingredients in my blender and somehow coming up with something that tastes even better than the rich sugar-filled desserts I grew up eating. I named this chocolate pistachio “brownie batter” ice cream because it literally tastes like cold, thick, creamy brownie batter! I also believe chocolate and pistachios belong together whenever possible. There is a delightful dance of flavor combinations in this “dessert”, which is actually healthy and nutritious enough to be eaten for breakfast!
Ingredients:
4 frozen RIPE bananas
1 1/2 tbsp raw cacao or unsweetened cocoa powder (whichever you prefer)
1 handful of raw pistachios
2-3 squirts of vanilla creme liquid stevia (optional, but soooo good)
Small splash of cold strong brewed coffee
Additional crushed pistachios for topping
Directions:
Blend your ingredients, and too with crushed pistachios. Way too easy!
Don’t ever feel like you have to give up delicious foods to live a healthy plant-based life! It’s just not true. This lifestyle provides so much flavor and indulgence, stay tuned and I’ll show you!
I hope you try and enjoy!

Wow! My mouth is watering! This looks amazing! I was at Costco, and they were sampling a “healthy-looking” smoothie, which didn’t look that good but this recipe looks amazing! I love the thickness and I never thought of putting pistachios in my smoothie. What in particular does the pistachios add?
