This ice-cream really is a kind of magic. Frozen fruit and coconut milk is processed until it whips up into a light, fluffy dessert. It is best eaten straight away, but can be frozen once made.

Instructions
Freezing time 8 hours
Remove the banana and coconut milk from the freezer and place in a food processor. Blitz for 3–4 minutes, until the mixture is completely smooth and has whipped to a light, ice-cream consistency.
Serve immediately, sprinkled with a little cinnamon and some coconut chips.
Note
• If you choose to freeze the ice-cream once it has been made, simply set aside at room temperature for 10-15 minutes before serving.
