Homemade Banana Split Ice Cream Recipe

  • 1 pint heavy whipping cream
  • 1/3 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 1 banana, mashed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 (5 ounce) jar maraschino cherries, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon strawberry jam, or to taste
  • 1 tablespoon chocolate syrup, or to taste
  1. Combine heavy cream, sugar, and salt in a saucepan. Heat over medium heat until steaming, 3 to 4 minutes.
  2. Whisk egg yolks in a bowl. Whisk in 1 cup of the hot cream. Pour egg and cream mixture back into the saucepan; cook and stir until mixture coats the back of a spoon, about 4 minutes. Mix in banana and vanilla extract.
  3. Transfer mixture to the refrigerator; chill until very cold, at least 2 hours.
  4. Freeze cold mixture in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions. Transfer to a freezer-safe container; fold in maraschino cherries, strawberry jam, and chocolate syrup.
  5. Freeze ice cream until firm, about 4 hours.
