Cashew Banana Ice-Cream

Who doesn't like ice-cream? If you answered 'Me' then I'm sorry, we can't be friends.

Actually, if you don't like ice-cream, I'm not sorry.

However, if you are not allowed dairy or gluten, this does rather limit your ice-cream options. Which sucks.

To the rescue tomes raw desserts! in this case, raw cashew banana ice-cream!

This is INCREDIBLY easy.

Ingredients:
- 1 cup cashews
- 1 banana
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- Honey, argave syrup or maple syrup to taste (I used maple syrup)

First, soak 1 cup of cashews for 2 hours or
more. I put them on to soak efore leaving the house for work, and had them all ready for
when I came home.



Drain them, and they're all ready to use!

Once again, this is a super easy blender recipe. Put the cashews in the blender, and blend. Depending on your blender, it may take a while. 
Add the coconut oil and the banana, the your sweetener to taste. (Yay for tasting!)

Put your blend in a freezer safe container and freeze. Take it out and stir every 1/2 hour or so so that it doesn't freeze rock hard. However, if it does, all you need to do is put it in the microwave for 10 seconds.
