1. Begin by shaking the canned coconut milk well, then open and pour it into a medium-sized mixing bowl.
2. Add the creamy peanut butter, pure maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt to the coconut milk in the bowl.
3. Use a whisk or an electric mixer to blend all ingredients until smooth. Ensure there are no lumps of peanut butter for a consistent texture.
4. If using, fold in the optional chopped roasted peanuts for added crunch and extra peanut flavor.
5. Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually about 20-25 minutes, or until the mixture reaches your desired soft-serve consistency.
6. Transfer the churned ice cream into an airtight, freezer-safe container and smooth out the top.
7. Cover and freeze for at least 3-4 hours or until firm enough to scoop.
8. Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes to make scooping easier.
9. Enjoy your rich and creamy dairy-free peanut butter ice cream as a standalone treat or topped with additional chopped peanuts or a drizzle of chocolate syrup.
