How to use frozen bananas for smoothies? ›

Many smoothie recipes call for frozen bananas, so you'll be all set when you keep a stash in your freezer! If your blender is powerful, you might be able to simply break the frozen banana in half as you add it to the smoothie. Or, cut it into frozen banana slices first, for easier blending.

Frozen bananas will blend more smoothly when they are cut into smaller pieces rather than if you try to blend frozen whole bananas. The smaller the pieces, the easier they will be to blend. (This is especially true if you have an old blender – the smaller the slices, the easier it will be on your blender.)

Do frozen bananas make smoothies thicker? ›

Should you thaw frozen fruit before making a smoothie? ›

Be sure to use enough frozen fruit in your smoothie for a perfectly creamy texture. Not enough and you'll be stuck with a watery drink. Just before you blend your smoothie, let the frozen fruit thaw slightly for 5-10 minutes. This'll make the ingredients blend together much easier.

How do you thicken nice cream? ›

How can you thicken nice cream? Nice cream right out of the blender or food processor tends to have a texture similar to soft-serve ice cream or custard.
