Recipe courtesy of Hilary Agin, PPMNY Community Member

The combination of ingredients makes for a delicious dessert that is a beautiful purple and very high in antioxidants. Also great as a snack or for breakfast.

Ingredients

  • 4 bananas

  • ¾ cup frozen blueberries
  • 1 T acai powder
  • 1 tsp purple sweet potato flour
  • 3 T canned adzuki beans (rinse first)

Instructions

1. Peel and freeze super ripe bananas.
2. Take frozen bananas and blueberries and the remaining other ingredients and blend fully in a high speed blender.

Chef's Notes

• You can add more or less of whichever ingredient you want (and leave one out if you don’t have it).
• This photo shows the nice cream topped with homemade brownies and walnuts but just about any topping would be wonderful on this.
• Try using boiled purple sweet potatoes instead of the powder if you can't find the powder.
• Adding a touch of powdered cloves is also a nice addition.
