Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the bananas: Slice the ripe bananas into small pieces and place them in the freezer. Freeze for at least 2 hours until they are completely frozen to ensure a creamy texture when blended.
- Blend the ingredients: Combine the frozen banana slices, peanut butter, almond milk, and honey (if using) in a blender or food processor. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
- Freeze the mixture: Transfer the blended mixture into a freezer-safe container. Freeze for an additional 2 hours to firm up the ice cream and develop the perfect scoopable consistency.
- Scoop and serve: Remove the ice cream from the freezer and let it sit for a few minutes to soften slightly. Scoop into bowls or cones and serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
Notes
- You can substitute almond milk with any other plant-based milk or dairy milk based on your preference.
- For a sweeter ice cream, add a bit more honey or a natural sweetener of your choice.
- If you prefer crunchy bits, stir in some chopped peanuts or chocolate chips before the final freeze.
- To make this vegan, ensure you use maple syrup or agave nectar instead of honey.
- Leftover ice cream can be stored in the freezer for up to 1 week.
