Banoffee Pie Ice Cream Ingredients

Heavy Whipping Cream – We’ll be whipping this up to add airiness to the ice cream.

Sweetened Condensed Milk – Using this thickened, sweetened milk is a shortcut that replaces the traditional custard used in churned ice cream recipes.

Vanilla Extract – for best results, I recommend using the best vanilla extract that you can reasonably afford when making ice creams. We aren’t cooking it, so the flavor really shines through.

Bananas – Mashed bananas are added right in to the mix! Choose yellow bananas with some brown spots that are ripe but not overripe. Green bananas will not be sweet enough for this recipe.

Vanilla Wafers – Crush or chop your cookies before adding them. These add a nice crunchy texture.

Toffee Sauce – I can usually find toffee sauce in my grocery store near the ice cream toppings and cones. If you can’t find it, a good caramel sauce will be delicious here instead.

Banoffee Pie Ice Cream Recipe Tips

Start with Ripe Bananas – Green bananas will not work in this recipe, as we need them to be sweet and easily mashed. Look for bananas that are yellow with some brown spots.

Don’t Overwhip– Be sure not to overwhip your heavy cream, otherwise it will curdle. You want the whipped cream to stand up straight when you pull the beater out of it. If the peaks of the whipped cream fall over, then you need to keep going a little while longer.

Use quality ingredients – When making homemade ice cream, you’ll want to make sure you are using high quality ingredients for the best outcome.

Chill out – If possible, always start with chilled ingredients. This is important for homemade no-churn ice cream recipes and ice cream maker recipes.

Don’t skimp on the fat – High fat milks and creams are essential when making homemade ice cream. Opting for a low-fat option often leads to icy ice creams and inconsistency in the texture.

Don’t go crazy with the add-ins – If you’re adding in additional ingredients, pick one or two and make sure they are chopped into pieces no larger than a blueberry or pea.

Don’t skimp on the sugar – Sugar not only adds sweetness to homemade ice creams, it also helps with the texture. Sugar is essential for the creamy texture in ice cream.
