Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Peanut Butter (low-fat or reduced-fat)
- 3 large Bananas (ripe, frozen)
- 0.75 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Begin by peeling the ripe bananas and slicing them into thin rounds. Place them in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for at least 2 hours, or until completely firm.
Once the bananas are frozen, remove them from the freezer and let them sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes to slightly soften.
In a high-speed blender or food processor, combine the frozen banana slices, peanut butter, almond milk, honey, vanilla extract, and salt.
Blend the mixture on high until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides of the blender as needed. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
Transfer the mixture into a lidded, freezer-safe container, spreading it evenly.
Cover the container tightly and place it in the freezer for at least 4 hours or until firm.
Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes to soften slightly, making it easier to scoop.
Serve in bowls or cones and enjoy your homemade low-fat creamy peanut ice cream!
