congrats - eating right does the work on the 100 pounds - will watch that next. Got my instapot today - now want a vitamix =)
Your 5200 is way more expensive than my E320… What do you actually get for that extra cost? A DVD? LOL. That seems to be what Amazon is saying.
I always go back to this when I want to make Nice Cream. You should do a video about how you went from Banana Wisdom to Potato Wisdom.
Frozen Bananas a scoop of peanut flour and a scoop of raw cacao powder.....MMMMMMMMazing
nope
Great tip, looks good thanks!
Hack: Use a large offset spatula (like for frosting cakes) to get stuff out of the Vitamix. It works like a charm!
+Veggie V THANK-YOU!!!
Who doesn't already do that? :) I wonder how many things I do every day would now be qualified as "hacks"?
I didn't so it was helpful
Adding the cherries sounds scrumptious. Looks delish.
That looks really good! I'm buying a Vitamix 5300 in a couple weeks. Saving this video and trying this one out. Thank you!
You're going to love your vitamix!!
looks so good 😋
Loving your old videos too. PS You can put in cocoa powder for chocolate nice cream.
oh yes, cocao is bomb!
Starting with the vitamix on high could potentially damage the motor overtime, whenever I blend frozen fruit, just start at zero, then turn the dial. You don't need to go slow, but go from zero to ten, not off to trn
that's how I used to do it but I found that makes my blender angry and hot. This way it's done in less than 30 seconds
You're dumb these machines are never broken barely any break unless someone purposely breaks it which clearly they wouldn't do plus you got a 10 year warranty anyway when you get certain models some are around 7 years
Also these blenders ain't cheap it's built with metal components so is very capable of handling anything you throw at it you can use any ingredient no matter how solid on the blades the motor is built using the same stainless steel think about it tool
You make a lot of good points but no need to be rude
J GILLY it’s toxic users like you that dissuade me from frequently engaging the vitamix community. It’s a wonderful product but there’s a good chunk of the community that are so hateful and trolly
Looks yummmmmmmy! I'll be making this today!
Thanks a lot. :)
Thank you! This just happened. I was making banana nice cream and did not turn it all the way up. I did the gradual turn and it overworked the blender. So it's best to just start out w/ the tamper in which I didn't do as well. Sheesh. It started smoking underneath, I thought I broke it but then rinsed it out and ran it w/ just water and it worked fine no smoke. I'm thinking the blades got stuck and the motor was trying to spin and it just quit. Thank goodness I did not break it, those are expensive!
What a great video ! Love the green screen! You look beautiful surrounded by all those bananas!😊😊😊😊 I am so gonna try your method! My vitamix growls at me when making nice cream on slower speed so this will be great!!! Thanks so much! Gonna look for the stevia drops too!
+Sherismiley thank-you :D
Awesome! I've been having nice cream for breakfast every morning, I'll try it your way tomorrow :D Very cool background!
+Vegan Dog Lady I hope you love the new method, just be sure to push down on the tamper right away! It's unbelievably fast compared to the way I used to do it. My vitamix is 7 years old so I figured I could take the risk in trying it.
Looks good. This is why I love my BlendTec, no tamper needed!
Does it work okay in a blendtec? I have a friend with one and they can't seem to make nice cream without having to pull off the lid, push it all back down, blend, and repeat
Pauline K lmao! You need a tamper or a twister jar. You’re going to need liquid on the wildside to try this recipe.
Great video and tips!
Doing this tomorrow! Thank you!
Thank you for the video. My vegan teenagers will love this! . . . and oh my gosh, do we love our Vitamix! Most used appliance in our home. (From, Lisa)
Thank you so much! I always do it on variable and even start with ripe unfrozen bananas and it would shut down. I was always afraid of high speed too. Thank you.
I called vitamix about it and I was told to use high speed, it’s a powerful machine and I was under using the power, so it smell, gets hot and shuts down.
Now I rev it up full blast and it’s great.
Thanks for the tip! I’ve been making banana shakes for my son since he had his wisdom teeth out and it makes my Vitamix smoke. My old Ninja blender handled frozen bananas much better. Unfortunately the lid broke and they didn’t make a replacement for it.
I love the coulor
Made this last night. So easy and delicious. Thank you. It did put a noticeable strain on the motor of our new vitamix, however. 🤔
Go with what feels right for you. One thing I like about this method is that it's done and over with quickly without making a smell from a hot motor. When I do it the slow (suggested) way, I notice the motor starts to smell.
@@PotatoWisdom thanks again. yes I think it is best to make it quick, turn it on high. Like you I was afraid to turn it up too high and so it over works the motor. I had smoke coming out the bottom and was afraid I broke it but now it works fine. Next time I feel brave enough to make banana nice cream again I will try this "quick" method rather than the gradual turn up way.
I love ice cream. It looks so delicious😋👍👍
Ha, ha, ha! I thought I was the only one afraid of my Vitamix. Sometimes I just walk away and let it do its thing for fear that it will attack me.
LOL!!!
Thanks that was super helpful. Also, great use of the green screen.At first I thought you had bought a giant banana print fabric lol
haha!! I totally need some banana fabric in my life
Awesome VITAMIX BLENDER SORBET
Thank for this! I stopped using my vitamix because I was so scared I was going to burn out the motor! I will try your method and thanks again!!!! 🍌🍒🍌🍒🍌🍒🍌
+LifeonPlants yay!!
OMG!!!!! I quit using my Vitamix because I was doing it wrong!!!! Anyway I have a Yonanas now and it is very good. It is less waste and easy to clean.
Great vlog
Looks so yummy! X
+Finding Gemma yummy in the tummyyy =)
Hi! I had no idea you started with bananas! I discovered your content under the Potatowisdom brand! I swear to God I thought you were going to put sweet potatoes in there 😂
I agree got to blast it on high and it scares me too. My motor kept stopping on me everytime I made nice cream. I love the green screen of bananas. Oh and cherry banana nice cream sounds so good!!
+The Plant Eaters it's a great combo! I hope your vitamix doesn't attack you if you try this method lol!
Nice job on the green screen! Thanks for the demonstration.
Thank you, i have a recipe to make with my vitamix
Thanks for the recipe never thought about using cherries are they also frozen? Do you leave the seeds in? Probably not ha
I have the A3500 and I have to run the frozen preset like 3 times before it starts blending my frozen stuff well. Ima try your method with the variable speed knob !!
The cherries are frozen too yes but I let them defrost a little - fresh cherries work too! Yes the pits must come out before going in the blender or else it will sound like you are grinding rocks
Great thank you
Cute intro!
thank you
HEY! This was awesome! I just got my first vitamix the other day. Been searching around for things to do with it. This hit the spot! Keep on being amazing.
Anybody with a blendtec, there's now a tamper made (not from blendtec) thats made specifically for the blendtec model so now you can make perfect nice cream
oh yay!! finally!
First, you could pulse it first. Second, 4 bananas for two people is a LOT, it could serve 4 people. Especially since you are adding more fruit. Also, banans are great and thanks for the tip about defrosting a bit so they arent like banana rocks in the vitamix. I think another trick might be to add some coconut oil or a bit of avocado...to keep it from getting too crystalized. Finally, liquid stevia has a vanilla creme flavor that I use in my chia pudding and it is really good. The options are endless...banana strawberry, banana chocolate, coconut, mango...pretty much any fruit.
Cheers! I don't do oil or much fat but that sound desish!
nice work
and I have an offset spatula but never thought to use it for my Vitamix..thx
I probably should get a better spatula.. I think vitamix has one that fits in the vitamix better
Thanks! I'm always worried my nice cream will break the blender, I can smell it too
I know what you mean. :)
Wow looks yummy. 😄
Has anyone tried adding some ginger? I love ginger and usually get it added at cafes for custom smoothies.
I haven't but that sounds really good
Haha the Vitamix is terrifying when angry! My husband got it for my birthday, traumatized me when it started to make a loud whirring noise, guess I had overloaded it & didn't know how to use the tamper at the time.. All these tips are greatly appreciated, especially the mug hack; done it with soup but never thought of icecream!! Genius!
Love your channel! :)
+The Vegan Wife LOUD NOISES! =) Most of the time my nice cream is too big to fit in a mug, but if I'm sharing then yes haha.
+Banana Wisdom lol I don't like to share my nicecream either! ;)
1:10 it looks like you're letting some "air" out..
I'm letting air out as I type this comment
@Misha Voronenko ?
I have a Vitamix , but I prefer making my ice cream in my Ninja Master prep food processor. It's just as yummy.
of course, I don't see how another machine would make it taste less yummy - I just find that if it's a blender without a tamper to push down the bananas, it's a lot more work and requires patience which I don't have lol!
do you need a vitamix to do this? it seems effective lol, but could a regular blender work?
A vitamix is important for this. You can do something similar in a food processor.
I wish the good people who make vitamix would make an affordable model for those of us who want to eat healthy foods, but just cannot ever plunk down 500+ bucks for a blender. I was so shocked to see how much they cost.
I tried to do this with a regular blender and push it down with a wooden spoon, results: the blender almost broke, the ice cream had delicious blended wood witch gave a nice crunch, and my mom n my dad said that i could not use the blender in 30 days.
You could get a Yonanna machine. Amazon sells them.
BlendTec has a payment plan, that is how I got mine. HSN & QVC also has them sometimes on payments as well. Both BlendTec & Vitamix have refurbished blenders for sale on their websites at a cheaper rate.
Cherries with pits still okay to blend?
No, they need to be pitted
Just use Twster jar with blendtec n keep the workout for gym?
Xeit that works too! I’m so looking forward to my gym opening again!
How would coconut milk go well blended in it do?
A small amount would work really well
What song did u use
"You" by Jeff Kaale
Does vanilla essence match with raw cherry 🍒. They have different flavour/essence/taste. .....🤔????
What about seeds in cherry....😟
Frozen cherries don't have pits. The vanilla tastes great with the cherry-banana combo
BANANA ICE CREAM
Jasmine Tripoli 😑
I wish I could afford a Vitamix but that is just never happening. Has anyone had luck using regular blenders or food processors? I have so many great recipes but they all seem to require a Vitamix.
You can do this in a food processor. Cut your bananas into chunks before freezing. When you're ready to make your nice cream, let the bananas sit out for 10 minutes to defrost slightly. Add to your food processor, pulse until smooth (you may need to add a splash of non-dairy milk, and you also may need to remove the lid a few times to push the bananas off the sides of the food processor). I hope this helps!
Wow, starting on high was a game changer! I always would blow my motor and have to wait for it to cool trying to make nice cream. This was so easy! I used defrosted frozen pineapple, sprinkled some coconut flakes on top and it was perfect ! 🍌 🍍
Right on!
Can you use a blender instead of a vitamix?
The tamper is what makes the biggest difference and it only comes with a vitamix as far as I know. If you want to make it in a regular blender, I suggest letting the bananas defrost a little longer (maybe 15 minutes at room temp) then give it a go, you may need to add some almond or soy milk to help it along.
A Vitamix is a blender. Do you mean food processor? Yes, you can use a food processor.
@@evolutiongirl321 A Vitamix is a blender, but it's a very powerful one with overheat protection (it shuts off if it gets too hot -- yes, I have had that happen more than one with frozen bananas). I bought my Vitamix specifically for this, as my regular blenders (both a ninja and a Kitchenaid) just didn't have the power.
You can add more liquid (milk, soy milk, etc), which is OK, but it gets pretty watery, so you need to freeze it --then it gets harder than pure banana.
Also: the Vitamix has the tamper, which is very helpful. I Have no idea why other blenders don't have that -- it's pretty simple.
Can the nice cream be used to make ice-cream
I'm not sure what you mean by that
Banana Wisdom how many bananas
No it cannot. N'ice cream is vegan.
I have the same vitamix and it doesn’t do well with the banana nice cream. It sounds like it’s working way too hard. I’m gonna try my food processor. But thank you. I may not be the best vitamix user. 😊
Iv'e heard a lot of people love using their food processor for this.
what if we r not having vitamix
Aikatsu Go I just use a food processor
read my response for Avalon Young
Is that a banana tattoo if so you love bananas!
yes haha
you will shear the gear drive off if you keep starting on hi speed
Nope, it's still running beautifully after all these years. It never runs like that for more than 30 seconds.
luv this recipe idea. also check out the Vegan Corner here for lots of vegan recipes.
I love the Vegan Corner!! Banana Bites are my fav recipe of theirs. So easy!
You dont have to use any milk then-vegan or otherwise?
Not if you let the bananas defrost a little first
see it didn't attack you ..or get mad ..
Fear not!! Be brave.
Consequently, I interest ing under an avocado ice cream,therefore I could find for it sweetly,the best days from an African Geneva,bellow a tourism,urs most confidential y,Humphrey.
Guys please DONT START VITAMIX ON HIGH!!! It’s going to ruin the motor after several such uses. Always first break up the frozen fruit on low speed and once it is mixed up into a sludge, then gradually increase speed over the course of 30 seconds or so.
Nope. I have been doing this for 4 years. No problems whatsoever. The key is to let the fruit defrost for at least 10 minutes. The vitamix ends up on high for less than 30 seconds. Yet when I do it the way you suggested, my vitamix motor gets HOT and smells.
wait ,don't u throw the core of cherry ????
they didn't have any, they came pitted and frozen.
I'm pretty sure it says potato wisdom not banana
Potato is the new banana
I use my food processor
She is bananas 🍌😜
Vitamix used to be metal, durable and with a great reputation, but having seen what the narrator had to go through, I think I would not purchase a vitamix.
it is metal and durable. I've had that vitamix for over 7 years and it's still going strong :). I will not hesitate to purchase a new one when this one kicks the bucket one day.
The new ones work just fine, it'd the operator..really have had mine for 8 years now , never a problem.
Wow you didnt have to put in condenced milk or heavy cream i like this recipe better
That's hilarious. This RUclipsr: The way I like to make Vitamix ice cream is the BEST way!
Except, no. Not it's not I make way better ice cream with my Vitamix than this.
Care to share?
dang 500 bucks for a blender? not at all doable for this po boy. Do you actually need a blender AND and food processor? won't a processor do the job of a blender? thanks
I'd just stick with your food processor if you have one, it just takes more patience and time to do this in the food processor.
Made my first batch; the bananas and strawberries mixed up very quickly and next time, I'll put the pineapple in first:) Also, once i dumped out the mixture, i put the lumps back in for another go. It was delicious. Afterwards, i put the NC in the freezer but i have to chop it out of it's container, which is okay; may find a buncha one serving containers to freeze it in next time.
Thanks for the intro to NC; i love it!
Oh, and I found an acceptable food processor, in like new or new condition, at a flea market for $5! Just had to fashion myself a tamper cause it was missing. Nice Cream on a Budget!
Super fast? Then why's she running her flappers?
I like to flap.
Que delicia 😋😋👌👌👍👍
Starting the motor off to high is better. Electric motors have their highest torque almost instantly. Starting it low and then turn the knob actually stresses the motor more as you start it with its lowest torque. The only problem is that it will probably catapult all the materials up. I am starting it somewhere middle and then take it all the way up. Now if someone wants to start it low there shouldn't be a problem as these machines are built like tanks.
finally! Someone who understands the mechanics of this!
Thumb down because of that crazy looking green screen fakeness... its messing with my eyes!!
lol! this made my day, thanks for the laugh =)
Why are you out of breath?
If I could travel back in time two years I would go ask myself.
the only thing that wasn't good was the presentation.......
this video is 100 years old lol
Frozen banana smoothie no thanks
=)
Life is much too hard for this woman. She scared of the blender and her fingers freeze holding ice cream? If anyone wants to know what white privilege looks like lol
You talk about me as if I’m not here anymore 😂
Remind me no to eat this womens food, all she did was touch her hair then touch the food....talk about food hygiene.
Just remind me to never invite you over for dinner, rude people are boring.
Caretta Pride e .hn
Really? It's not like she rubbed poisonous mud in her hair. Grief, it's just hair, which is made of the same "stuff" that fingernails are. Do you eat food touched by someone's fingernails? I swear, some people just feel it is their JOB to write something negative, even if it is utter bollocks.
Potato Wisdom, this comeback was good AF! #thuglife
Amy Lynn Hunt some people have different opinions on things. my mom told me when i cook and i touch my hair make sure i was my hands. it’s just proper hygiene. and it’s not rude it’s the truth.
