I have many fond memories eating a banana split. They are a family favorite and a perfect activity to do together in the summer or any time of the year you are craving ice cream!

As far as desserts go, the banana split is one of the most popular desserts in the United States, and it is easy to see why. It is a classic dessert that you don’t have to cook or bake and it is ready in just a few minutes. And you can make so many variations easily to suit lots of different tastes. Love it!

If I can do it you can do it. Let’s get started!

What is a banana split?
First of all if you aren’t familiar with banana splits, they are an essentially and ice cream sundae with bananas. You got to make that ice cream healthy somehow right? haha. The bananas are split in two and different kinds of ice cream are place in the middle, then topped with a number of toppings.
