Creamy, dreamy, and utterly indulgent, Paleo Peanut Butter Ice Cream is a dairy-free sensation bound to become your new favorite treat. Made with full-fat coconut milk for luscious texture, almond butter (or homemade peanut butter for a Paleo-friendly twist) adds a nutty richness, while maple syrup lends natural sweetness. Infused with vanilla extract and a pinch of salt, this easy 10-minute prep recipe comes together effortlessly before freezing to silky perfection. Optional chopped almonds provide a satisfying crunch, making this ice cream not only Paleo-approved but irresistibly decadent. Perfect for those looking for a guilt-free dessert, this creamy creation is gluten-free, refined sugar-free, and packed with wholesome, nutrient-rich ingredients. Serve it straight from the freezer or let it soften slightly for that perfect scoop, and enjoy a truly indulgent yet health-conscious treat!
In a medium blender, combine the coconut milk, almond butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt.
Blend the ingredients on high speed for about 1-2 minutes, until the mixture is completely smooth and well combined.
Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness if necessary by adding more maple syrup.
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually about 20-25 minutes, until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
If adding chopped almonds, do so during the last 5 minutes of churning.
Transfer the ice cream into an airtight container, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Cover the surface with plastic wrap to prevent ice crystals from forming, then seal the container with its lid.
Freeze the ice cream for at least 4 hours or overnight for a firmer texture.
To serve, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes to soften before scooping.
Enjoy your creamy Paleo Peanut Butter Ice Cream!
