Where to buy yonanas in nz

If you eat a lot of ice cream but are trying to be healthy I would say this is the machine for you. Back before purchasing it, I read a lot of reviews myself, and I was glad to be able to purchase it with a good idea of what it does and it's good and bad points - of which it does have both.

Firstly, I realise that it is possible to make banana 'icecream' in a food processor. Although I haven't tried this myself, I personally felt that it was still worth purchasing the machine for my situation.

This machine is compact, easy to clean, and is perfectly designed for the job. Quite simply this machine makes a healthy dessert in an icecream like consistency, quickly and easily. You usually need bananas so don't buy this if you don't like them! In fact you can use only bananas if you like - it doesn't need anything else.

Bananas and whatever else you put through needs to be frozen for at least 24 hours so you need to be organised. I find that I freeze my bananas when they get to the required stage brown and motley as they are sweetest then and I just leave them in the freezer until I need them.

Last night I used bananas that had been frozen for over 2 months and tasted fine. So far I've put through strawberries, blueberries, and plums for basic fruit combinations.

Sometimes I add some artificial sweetener just a drop or 2 but it's not necessary. I've put dates through with the bananas but they do tend to clog the machine a bit but it's still yum. For more naughty combinations I've even tried oreo biscuits and chocolate pieces although the chocolate gets so minced up that it might be almost better to stir through the pieces later.

I'm still experimenting and so far the machine motor has coped fine. I do notice that you need to eat the 'icecream' straight away as melted mashed up banana is not nearly so nice as when it's frozen - it starts to look like really really sloppy baby food!

It also means that you don't really want to put it on a hot dessert, although in saying that it was nice on warm pancakes - as long as I ate fast! You also need to open up the machine as soon as you've made your 'icecream' as a decent amount of mixture gets left behind in the machine. However this isn't an issue and it's so easy to run under water to clean after scooping out the last bits.

There are only 4 washable pieces - the base unit stays completely clean. A couple of times I have had trouble screwing open the parts, but it's not usually a problem. Last night I used 2 small bananas plus a handful of blueberries and it made enough for 2 of us to have a small bowl each, so it doesn't use excessive amounts of fruit. The fruit mixes as it goes through the machine as long as you put pieces in alternately.

My husband and I both enjoy this as a sweet but healthy dessert treat, or just as a refreshing snack on a hot day. My 5 year old doesn't like it at all, but then she won't eat icecream either so I didn't really expect it to be her thing! Overall I recommend the machine if you can get it at a good price but it's good to have decent freezer space to start building up a good supply of bananas and other fruit ready to go.

We don't have any bananas going bad in this house anymore! After coming home from my Christmas break, I went to see a friend who had just received a Yonanas machine as a prize.

She was so happy with it and described how she was using it. I got this desire to have one, NOW! I was hoping that it wouldn't just be another expensive toy and after careful thinking decided it was worth a try.

The evening I got it home I just had to try it out. I was so glad that I had the habit of putting any overripe fruit in the freezer for smoothies etc.

We ate dinner and while the kids were finishing eating I popped inside to try my new toy out. It was very quick and easy to get going and within 10 minutes I had it out of the box and creating a lovely creamy 'ice-cream'. I mixed it up a little in the bowl and put it into ice-cream cones. My three year old son and husband thought he was in heaven as we don't have too much ice-cream in the house.

I found that putting the "ice-cream" inside the cone meant that my 11 month old daughter could eat it all by herself too. This is my ideal dessert as it is something that the whole family enjoys eating, is quick to prepare and it is actually very good for you.

I can't eat too much dairy and the fact that Yonanas can be made purely from fruit but had a creamy texture of ice-cream, we all get a fantastic dessert. There are quite a few different suggestion as to how to use the ice-cream on the www. Insert alternating pieces of slightly thawed strawberries and slightly thawed pineapple pieces into the yonanas machine.

Split vanilla beans lengthwise and scrape out seeds. Spread the seeds over one of the bananas. Insert alternating pieces of banana and blackberries into the yonanas machine.

It's a bit screechy when it's churning out the stuff, so if you've got thin walls hello from NYC , I would take that into consideration.

I wanted to find out. The way it works is pretty straight forward: just push frozen fruit through the chute with the plunger, and a few seconds later, it'll churn out your soft serve or froyo. I decided to try several different flavors to really get an idea of what this thing could do. Then, umm I took it too far. I tried making ice pops out of the leftover blueberry and banana froyo. And it was kind of a disaster.
