Vegan Watermelon Gelato (Only 2 Ingredients!)
Watermelon gets even better when frozen and churned into this refreshing, sugar-free, dairy-free gelato. It's magical!
Course Dessert
Keyword banana, gelato, ice cream, watermelon
- 5 cups frozen cubed watermelon see note
- 1 cup sliced overripe banana (frozen or room temp) see note
- 1/2 - 1 tbsp coconut nectar or cassava syrup OPTIONAL (see note)
- 1-2 tbsp raw cashew butter, OPTIONAL (see note)
Add watermelon and banana to a food processor (if you prefer to use a blender, it must be high-speed for this recipe).
Pulse to first mince the frozen fruit, and then once in slivers or small pieces, switch to puree.
Puree until smooth, stopping to scrape down food processor once or twice.
Taste, and if you’d like it a little sweeter, add the sweetener to taste.
Serve, or transfer to the freezer for an hour or more for a firmer set gelato.
Notes:
- Sweetener is truly optional, there is usually enough natural sweetness in the watermelon and ripe banana.
- For additional 'creaminess', add 1-2 tbsp raw cashew butter.
