This Honey Walnut Nice Cream Recipe is an easy frozen treat made with only 3 ingredients: frozen bananas, honey, and walnuts! No ice cream maker needed!
So, just what is “nice cream”? Nice cream is kind of like soft serve ice cream — but not. Unlike ice cream, it doesn’t have milk or cream and usually without added sugars or fat. It’s made mostly of just frozen fruit. The most common way of making nice cream is to blend up frozen bananas. You don’t even need to add anything to it — just blend up frozen bananas and you have a yummy frozen treat. But there are lots of ways you can make your nice cream even better. The same way you can add ingredients to homemade ice cream recipes, you can do the same with nice cream.
You could blend up some chocolate chips with your frozen bananas to make Chocolate & Banana Nice Cream. And you can use other fruits. Use frozen strawberries, frozen pineapple, or any others you like.
Today we’re sharing a delicious version of nice cream, that takes the basic version up a notch. This Honey Walnut Nice Cream recipe uses the same frozen banana base, but blends in both walnuts and honey for a more decadentnice cream.
To make thisHoney Walnut Nice Cream, you’ll want to start with frozen bananas chunks that have been frozen without their peel. They are placed in a food processor and blended until they are a smooth consistency. Then, add your walnuts and your honey to the bananas and pulse until they are combined into the frozen banana.
At this point, your Honey Walnut Nice Cream is ready to enjoy. We recommend enjoy immediately, but if your nice cream isn’t frozen/firm enough, place it in a freezer proof container and freezer for about an hour.
After you scoop it into a bowl, you can give it an extra drizzle of honey and a sprinkling of walnuts. This is completely optional, of course.

Perfect intro to nice cream. It is already banana flavored. Ii skipped the honey, but sauteed the walnuts in some maple syrup and let them crystalize, dried on a silpat sheet, and broke them up into bits. The bananas were so frozen, I had to wait a minute after the first blending. Then I pushed the mixture back into the blades and tried again. Just stirred in the chopped candied walnuts. Perfect creaminess. Will make it again!
