One-Ingredient Banana Ice Cream

What's the one magic ingredient that can be whipped into perfectly rich and silky ice cream, with no dairy whatsoever? The good ol' banana. If you freeze a banana until solid, then whiz it up in a blender or food processor. It gets creamy and a little gooey, just like good custard ice cream. Feel free to mix in a little nut butter or sprinkle with berries and nuts.
