do you have to use bananas to get a creamy texture?

Hmmm... I used frozen yogurt w berries and no bananas and it was fabulous!! Cashews too could make it "creamier" too . So, nope don't have to use frozen bananas if you don't want to !

I found that it is cremier with bananas, however you can still get a fairly creamy texture from using other fruits (comes out like a sherbert or sorbet). i tried mine with just froze watermelon, cantelope, and pineapple and it was great! Healthy Rainbow Sherbert!

No you do not have to use bananas. They just work the best. All other fruit needs to be thawed for at LEAST 15 mins before using.

Not at all. Their recipe book includes recipes to make sorbet, which uses no bananas. I personally love strawberries and raspberries, and you can use them frozen to make sorbet, frozen pies, etc.

There will be a significant solid chunk of coconut cream in the can (the good stuff!). This allows you to just use that for whipping or thickening foods but if you want the whole can, you can shake it but there will still be some chunks. I find a whisk will do a decent job but if you want a completely smooth milk, you'll need a blender, mixer, etc. to get it smooth. You can also warm it slightly which will also help blending. Hope that helps.

I usually never use the mix-ins, I do use peanut butter or banana it taste so good, also I add water instead if milk sometimes and it still taste good. You can add it in your coffee in any drinks too. Hope that answers your question if not let me know :) have a great weekend mary

You can put in large chunks, whole berries, cut up frozen bananas in 2" PCs, veggies, etc. The single most important thing is DO NOT fill over the MAX line!!! Add water or juice UP to that line, to make the shake thinner for drinking. Its fun & tasty.

I use water and not milk. Just because less calories for myself. I also mix all things like fruit bananas, berries etc. And yes I use a blender to get a good fine mix. But you can shake it without fruits and drink it but depending on mixer it is a little work to get chunks out.

I've never tried to do that, and I can't imagine from the texture perspective that I would try. For an eggy flavor in salad I'd use kala namak salt or make up some tofu "egg" salad with vegg or kala namak.

You can use other frozen fruit, but, bananas make make it sweeter. Also you need to eat it pretty fast. Do not let it sit to long, the bananas get mushy.

Yay! I hope you like it as much as I do. Plan on getting used to it for a few days. Add things like banana and peanut butter, or blueberries, at first so that you get used to the flavor. Enjoy!

I tried it in the Yoyonas maker. It turned out better when I blended the PB2 mix separately from the frozen bananas then just mixed it together when already smooth, otherwise it was lumpy for me, at least the first time I tried it. I also had success mixing 6 oz. frozen bananas, 10 oz. water, and 6 tbsp. peanut butter mix in a smoothie mixer, which turned into the consistency of a peanut butter milkshake.

No, you don't have to use bananas. My oldest son uses yogurt and he really likes that. We ended up also buying a desert bullet. The good gets stuck in the yonanas. With the desert bullet we were able to add coconut and other ingredients.

I think this is the texture not creamy like peanut butter. So if you wanted creamier I would add some coconut milk and/ or coconut oil and experiment to the consistency you prefer.

yes, you can. I blend with with half of a banana ,some berries and vanilla almond ,soy or coconut milk and a cup of ice.

The fruit and yogurt come out in a stiff mix with very simple cleanup. I think a lot of the answer has ro do with the kind of fruit you use: bananas to make it creamy, yogurt to give it the ice-cream touch and some extra body. And you can just dispense it into a dish or cone.

You can use as creamer- just shake well. Adding water would be your preference. If you refrigerate, if turns to cream in can. I open a can at room temp and pour in a jar. I use 1/2 cup each morning in my protein shake and 1/2 cup unsweetened "cartooned" coconut milk. You can also use this for making dairy free whipped cream. Refrigerating causes it to separate. Open can and pour liquid off. (Save watery liquid for something else). Put heavy cream part in mixing bowl and beat until consistency you like. Add a little sugar and vanilla while mixing.

I'm pretty a texture like yogurt should be fine. I have never tried it but I would not hesitate to store it in the container.
