I love the combination of cherries and chocolate! This ice cream reminds me a lot of Black Forest Cake or Cherry Garcia Ice Cream.

vegan
gluten-free
dairy-free
no-churn

You only need to freeze the bananas and sour cherries the day before, then you can make it in 5 minutes with the help of a food processor. This is the easiest ice cream! So healthy, and delicious!

How to make Cherry Nice Cream

As always you will find the whole recipe with measurements in the box below but I want to give you an overview of the key ingredients, variations, and the process with step-by-step photos first.

The ingredients

You'll only need three ingredients for this amazing Cherry Nice Cream:

bananas (frozen and in chunks) - makes the ice cream super smooth and creamy
canned, pitted sour/tart cherries - freeze 1 cup (150g) for the nice cream base, add the rest non-frozen cherries to the ice cream together with the chocolate chunks
and chocolate (cut into chunks) - I've used semi-sweet chocolate, but feel free to use dark or light chocolate - whatever you like best

The basic steps

frozen bananas and sour cherries in food processor — Step 1: Add the frozen bananas and frozen sour cherries into a food processor and mix until the ice cream is completely smooth. You might have to scrape down the sides a few times.
