Vanilla Caramel Swirl Banana Ice Cream with Chunks of Pie Crust

Another one for Coconutty! Hope this tastes like the real thing:)

Ingredients

  • 2 cups raw soaked cashews
  • seeds from one vanilla bean
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup crumbly, chewy pie crust of your choice
  • ¼ cup raw agave nectar
  • 1 recipe Caramel Sauce

Preparation

First, blend the cashews, vanilla bean seeds and extract,and agave nectar in your Vita-Mix till completely smooth, like vanilla ice cream. Run the frozen bananas through a juicer, which should turn into a cream. Add the banana cream to the blender with the vanilla cream and keep blending just to mix the banana in there. Freeze the ice cream mixture for 20 minutes, and then process through your ice cream maker. Before it’s done in the ice cream maker, pour in some caramel sauce and crumble some chunks of pie crust. Freeze the ice cream for 20 minutes more, scoop out, and eat!

Oops – I forgot to put that in. I use 2-3 bananas, depending on how much banana flavor you want :)
