Instructions

1
Prepare the frozen bananas. It's important that the bananas are very ripe (with brown spots) before you slice them into rounds and freeze them for at least 4 hours.
2
Pour the frozen banana pieces into a powerful blender. Blend on high speed until the bananas are finely chopped and start forming a creamy texture.
3
Add the protein powder, Greek yogurt, vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Keep blending until the mixture becomes completely smooth and thick, like soft-serve ice cream.
4
If the mixture is too thick, pour in a spoonful or two of almond milk, but be careful not to add too much, as you want to keep the ice cream's thickness.
5
Fold in the crumbled dark chocolate with a spatula to keep its crunchiness.
6
Serve the ice cream immediately in chilled bowls for the best texture.
