Because, ‘Merica. But, since dropping dairy I haven’t had been able to enjoy this creamy, dreamy treat for close to a year! And that’s a travesty, because in my books it isn’t summer until a frosty banana cream pie blizzard has crossed my lips. Lucky for me, there are workarounds. And it starts with this 1-ingredient banana powder. I had the idea to grind banana chips into a banana powder after watching the teenagers at Dairy Queen scoop a mysterious yellow powder into my blizzard. What is it? Nobody knows. The important thing is it can be duped with ground banana chips. Naturally sweet, naturally delicious. Huzzah! This blizzard is 100% naturally sweetened and requires just 7 ingredients. Banana chipsCashewsNon-dairy milkDatesVanillaCoconut oilBanana That’s it! These simple ingredients combine to create one seriously creamy banana cream pie treat that’s entirely dairy-free. Graham crackers (or another vegan-friendly cookie) are certainly optional but highly recommended for a true cream pie experience. This blizzard is kind of amazing.

And be sure to make our Chocolate Chocolate Chip version, too! Both delicious, both perfect for hot summer days. Last but not least, to prove itself worthy of the “Blizzard” title, the upside down trick…Yep! If you make this recipe, be sure to take a picture and tag it #minimalistbaker on Instagram. That way we can have an ice cream social online. It’s the best. Cheers!
