Peel bananas and slice into a few chunks. Freeze on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper overnight (if doing this step ahead of time, once frozen, transfer to a tupperware container for long-term storage).
Place frozen bananas in food processor or high speed blender. *Important: Allow to thaw for a few minutes before blending so that appliance will not overheat or blades become dull.
Once blended smooth, add in spirulina powder until desired hue of green is achieved.
Add in mint leaves or peppermint extract to taste.
Transfer your serving to a bowl, top with cacao nibs, and enjoy!
