January is the month we eat healthy foods so that we get a break from the sugar high and prepare ourselves for the next indulgence. Come mid February our diets are back to normal with cakes and chocolates. How about some ice cream? Fresh homemade ice cream with exciting blends and flavors are a real treat any time of the year, be it warm or cold outside.
Coconut and bananas are ingredients that are easily available year round, even up north here. These flavors help me dream of warmer climate ahead and remind me of a dessert I made recently with coconut milk known as Bubur Cha Cha. Sometimes bananas are added to this dessert although mine was without. Perhaps this Coconut Banana Ice Cream can be the creamier and frozen version of Bubur Cha Cha. 😉
This Coconut Banana Ice Cream is quite creamy even though there is coconut milk in the mix. All toppings are optional but highly recommended. Do give it a try.

Yummy! Your icecream makes me think of gelato.
Taste like bubur chacha? I’m sold! Looks wonderful!
My hubby thought there was yam in it. 🙂
Burbur chacha ice cream? Very creative Biren, please share some with me 🙂
Would love to share some with you. If only you are not that far away…
Nice, Biren! I have to admit that I’ve never been much of an ice cream person. I’d eat this in a second though! A dessert with redeeming health qualities this treat is:-)
Haha, in February we are back to our normal sweets eating selves. So true, Biren! This sundae looks SO good… I ate a bunch of ice cream yesterday but could totally go for some more. It’s February, what can I say?
Hooray to sugar! =) This looks so perfectly sweet – perfect treat.
That’s irresistible. For me,January or February, I love desserts esp cakes and ice cream 😉
Oooh, a coconutty ice cream topped with coconut and finished with Kahlua? Yummy yumm yumms! You had me at coconut, Biren 😉 This looks delicious, and you picked such a perfect and beautiful bowl for this. I wish I had an ice cream maker.
Biren, I don’t think I’ve ever been as tempted by an ice cream flavor as I am by this one. Banana and coconut is right up my alley! And who says you can’t eat ice cream in the winter? I’ll definitely take a scoop of this!
Coco nana sundae! I want some (till I get rid of my cough though)! Cute name for the sundae too.
I would love to come home to this after a long day at work. This looks so wonderful. Especially the toasted coconut topping!
beautiful presentation and awesome recipe..am drooling here..
Oh yes, Kahlua for me please 🙂 This looks and sounds so delightful!
Banana and coconut together in ice cream, I’ll take two scoops, please and pass a little Kahlua 😉 I don’t care how cold it is outside!
This looks delicious! Any ice cream is always welcome in my house!
When we moved into our new home, the previous owner left an ice cream maker we’ve been having fun with. Banana, coconut and maple sound delicious to me.

How nice to be left with an ice cream maker! Mine is new and I am just discovering the joys of homemade ice cream. 🙂
I definitely want some kahlua on mine please!! Lovely combination, but you put the idea of yam into my head and I’m now imagining chunks of yam in there too LOL
I have actually tasted yam ice cream before. Maybe I should try to recreate it sometime.
I LOVE Bubur Cha Cha! I lived in Singapore for awhile which is where I discovered it. Love that you’ve used that as an inspiration for your gorgeous ice cream! Isn’t it funny that hitting a high of 40 can feel like a seasonal shift? We feel that too of late when it gets out of single digits!
Glad to hear that you found bubur cha cha. 🙂 yes, it does feel different but the sad thing is that the temperature will drop again tomorrow. It is wet and messy right nw. Winter is getting old on me.
I like this very much, and so would my kids. Ice cream always work a treat in our house, no matter how cold outside!
Ice cream is definitely a treat and my boys love it too. This coco nana ice cream is all gone and I’ll have to try another flavor soon.
Your ice cream with coconut milk and bananas sounds just delightful!
Biren, I can just tell this would be my new favorite treat! I’m saving this for my next ice cream excursion!
Now that you mention this ice cream do sounds like Bo Bo Cha Cha to me… Saw lots of blogger including using coconut cream or milk as ice cream as vegan options…keen to try but afraid that my husband and son might not like it…hmmm…
Oh yes please. Heavy cream and coconut! Looks heavenly! Totally worth diet transgressions. Oh wait, I don’t have a diet. I’d dig right in.
Looks divine Biren! gorgeous step by step pics!
Oh Yum!! Love coconut ice cream. Just like the nuttiness. And you made it better by adding flakes and peanuts. YUMMMOoOOO
Biren, your comment on my site was so sweet and endearing, thank you. I love the tropical flavors of your sundae… It’s definitely a super yummy frozen version of bubur cha cha. My Sundae IIP post will be up soon, come back and have a taste!
Cheers,
Maya
Hehe, you are SO right about everyone being on the straight and narrow in January, then back to our usual tricks in Feb 😉
This looks and sounds like a great recipe, and I love your photos. Those dishes are gorgeous!
Such a yummy coconut ice cream sundae. Love the pretty bowl you served it in, and love the recipe, as well.
Thanks for sharing, Biren!
Banana and coconut sound like a perfect combo to my palate. I’ll take two scoops please, thank you
Oh, I love ice-cream! Now I’ve to start saving for an ice-cream maker. U’re so talented, Biren!
Simple and yummy. Love the coconut milk in it.
The dish looks incredibly yummy and the photos are gorgeous. I have not seen your blog before, and it looks gorgeous, so now I am going to have to have a look around!
