Ingredients
Ingredients
- 3 ripe bananas, sliced and frozen
- 2 tbsp natural peanut butter
- 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2–4 tbsp milk (almond, oat, or dairy)
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Prepare Bananas: Add the frozen banana slices to a high-powered blender or food processor. Blend until the mixture turns crumbly, scraping down the sides as needed to ensure even blending.
- Add Remaining Ingredients: Incorporate the peanut butter, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, salt, and 2 tablespoons of your chosen milk into the blender.
- Blend to Creamy Texture: Blend all the ingredients together until smooth and creamy, adding more milk up to 4 tablespoons as needed to achieve the desired consistency.
- Serve or Freeze: Serve immediately for a soft-serve ice cream texture, or transfer to a container and freeze for 1–2 hours for firmer scoops.
Notes
- Use very ripe bananas for the best natural sweetness.
- For added texture, mix in chocolate chips or cacao nibs.
- This nice cream is best enjoyed fresh; if you have leftovers, refreeze and reblend before serving.
- Peanut butter can be substituted with almond or cashew butter for a different flavor.
