Notes

STORING LEFTOVERS: Store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 4 months.
Prep tips: Alternatively, if you want your ice cream more frozen, place the nice cream into an airtight container, freeze for 2-3 hours and scoop out serves. I recommend freezing ripe bananas the day before as the store-bought frozen bananas have less flavour and sweetness. If your dates are quite hard, soak them in hot water for 10 mins, then drain before using them.
Allergies: For a nut-free version: Swap peanut butter for tahini or seed butter.
Easy ingredient swaps: Swap peanut butter for nut-butter of choice. Swap coconut cream for normal cream or milk of choice.
For fussy eaters: Make sure the dates are not detectable or use 1-2 tbsp of maple syrup or honey instead of the dates.
