02 - 1 cup whole milk
03 - 3/4 cup heavy cream

# How to Make It:

01 - In a blender, combine mashed bananas, whole milk, heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend until completely smooth.
02 - Pour the banana mixture into the Ninja Creami pint container. Seal and freeze upright for at least 12 hours or overnight until thoroughly frozen.
03 - In a small mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs with melted unsalted butter and brown sugar, stirring until the mixture resembles wet sand. Set aside.
04 - Once fully frozen, place the pint container into the Ninja Creami and process using the 'Ice Cream' setting.
05 - After the initial processing, create a 1-inch well in the center of the ice cream and add the prepared graham cracker crumble.
06 - Reinsert the container and process with the 'Mix-In' function until the swirl is thoroughly incorporated.
07 - Scoop into bowls and top with whipped cream and sliced bananas if desired. Serve immediately for optimal texture.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The bold banana flavor hides under a cloud of velvety sweetness, and the graham swirl sneaks in like a secret treat in every bite.
  • It’s honestly laughable how easy this is—no custards or stovetop juggling, just simple blending and letting the Ninja Creami do its magic.
02 -
  • If you don’t wait the full 12 hours for the base to freeze, you’ll end up with a mushy disappointment instead of creamy bliss.
  • Adding the graham swirl after the first spin keeps it crunchy instead of soggy.
03 -
