Peanut Butter Nice Cream

A printable version of peanut butter nice cream.
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cooling, chilling or freezing 4 hours 5 minutes
Total Time 4 hours 15 minutes
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 3 ripe bananas
  • 3 tablespoons natural peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons sugar-free chocolate chips, optional
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, optional

Method
 

  1. Peel 3 ripe bananas, slice them into coins, and freeze on a parchment-lined baking sheet for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  2. Remove the frozen banana slices from the freezer and let them sit at room temperature for 5 minutes to soften slightly.
  3. Add the frozen banana slices to a food processor or high-speed blender.
  4. Process for 1-2 minutes. The bananas will first look crumbly, then start to clump together.
  5. Keep processing, scraping down the sides as needed, until the mixture transforms into a smooth, creamy consistency (about 3-4 minutes total).
  6. Pulse in 3 tablespoons peanut butter.
  7. Optional: Add 2 tablespoons of sugar-free chocolate chips or a sprinkle of cinnamon and pulse briefly to incorporate.
  8. Serve immediately for soft-serve consistency, or transfer to a freezer-safe container and freeze for 1-2 hours for a firmer texture.
  9. If frozen solid, let sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before scooping.
