    The bananas for this recipe should not have lots of brown spots. They should look ripe and ready to eat, not the kind you would use for baking a banana bread.  To make this totally fairy free, you can use your favorite alternative or plant-based milk. You can find a heavy cream alternative as well in plant-based form. Oat milk will give you a nice creamy base. Coconut milk and soy milk are also good options.
